Sacramento, California. $20 1902 Plain Back. Fr. 650. Fort Sutter NB. Charter #7776. PMG Very Good 10.
Hailing from a bank whose very title conjures images of the California Gold Rush and the wild and untamed frontier; the Fort Sutter National Bank was a rather short-lived operation. First chartered in 1905, the Fort Sutter National Bank would close its doors in 1920 after having its assets absorbed by the Sacramento-San Joaquin Bank of Sacramento. Today a small handful of examples are recorded on this charter by the National Bank Note Census. Attested to by mostly Red Seals issued under the Series of 1902, the 11 pieces known on this bank are tightly held and scarcely offered with this example being the first to appear at auction in over 15 years.
Estimate: $1000.00- $1500.00
