San Francisco, National Gold Bank & Trust Co., 1994
Fr. 1143 $10 1872 GBN #3
Grade: Fine

There are only twelve $10 notes in existence today from this National Gold Bank. Two others are listed as VF, as this note should be. Notes from this Gold Bank, chartered in 1872 and liquidated in 1879, are some of the most difficult of all to be found with 20 currently in the census of all denominations. Only $5 and $10 issues are known to exist. This note is serial #3, making it the fourth lowest number known, after the three serial #1 notes. The pedigree is to Harley Freeman and Amon Carter. It was acquired directly from Amon Carter by the collector at an ANA. The signatures are still very clear.
