Description
Rare Large Size National from a "Common" Bank
Calistoga, California. $5 1902 Plain Back. Fr. 600. Calistoga NB. Charter #9551. PMG Very Fine 25.
Another exceptional piece from the Eric Agnew Collection, this note hails from a "common" bank albeit one that is prohibitively rare in large size. Out of 36 notes recorded here by the National Bank Note Census, this example is just one of five large size pieces recorded. Befitting such a small population, this note will be the first large size National offered from here since 2011 where this very note realized $8,050 amidst a spirted bidding session. When 13 years passes between a note being offered it is safe to say that such a note is quite rare and that it may be years before an example is offered once more. And so to potential bidders, I implore that you consider your options carefully as it might be 2037 before another large size National from the Calistoga National Bank appears at auction if the past is any precedent. PMG comments "Stain Lightened."
From the Eric Agnew Collection.
Estimate: $6000.00- $8000.00
