Berkeley, California. $20 1902 Date Back. Fr. 643. Berkeley NB. Charter #7849. PMG Very Fine 25.
Hailing from the rarest of Berkeley's four charters, the Berkeley National Bank has a total of only five notes recorded by the National Bank Note Census. As one would rightly expect offerings from this institution have been few and far between. The last time a note from this institution traded publicly was back in June 2015. The last time a $20 from this institution traded was almost 20 years ago back in September of 2004 just a few days after my fifth birthday and remains the only time a $20 has sold from here per records from Track & Price. Whether a note from here will make its presence known in the near future is anyone's guess, but this a great example of where the chance to buy the note is sometimes rarer than the note itself.
