Description
Pleasanton, California. $20 1929 Ty. 1. Fr. 1802-1. First NB. Charter #9897. PMG Very Fine 30.
Vastly outnumbered by Serial Number 1s which can trace their lineage to a number of uncut sheets, this note is one of six small size pieces that stand alone without sheetmates on the National Bank Note Census out of a total of 36 small size notes. An unusual occurrence in any respect, this piece from a charter which can be considered both "rare" and "common" is effectively Schrödinger's Cat albeit if one were to apply that thought experiment in a numismatic context. Regardless, should you want what is undoubtedly a rare note from this "common" institution it would be a grave error not to consider this piece as it may be years before a small size note with an unexceptional past is offered.
From the Eric Agnew Collection.
Estimate: $800.00- $1200.00
