Description

Uncut Sheet of (6) Saint Paul, Virginia. $5 1929 Ty. 2. Fr. 1800-2. St. Paul NB. Charter #8547. PMG Choice Uncirculated 64.
A highly appealing sheet of Type 2 $5s from a small Virginia town deep in the Shenandoah Valley. The issuing bank had the distinction of issuing just over $1.5 million in National Currency before 1935, a distinction that can likely be chalked up as a result of the former prominence of the coal industry in parts of rural Virginia. A pair of holes attributable to a single staple can be observed in the uncut margin between the bottom note and the note directly above it. Not a distracting fault by any means; this item nonetheless is a treasure to be had and one that is sure to be sought out by the number of collectors who avidly collect Nationals from the Old Dominion. PMG comments "Staple Holes."
From the "This Buck Stopped Here" Collection.

Estimate: $2000.00- $3000.00
