Geneva, Illinois. Kane County Bank. 18xx $5. PMG Choice Uncirculated

Geneva, Illinois. Kane County Bank. 18xx $5. PMG Choice Uncirculated 64 EPQ. Remainder. No. None. Plate A. Absent any trace of technical circulation that may be observed under close examination. Little is known about this institution other than it operated between 1857 and 1861 and ultimately failed as a result of the loose "Free Banking" laws in effect in Illinois during the period. It is nothing short of remarkable that this piece managed to avoid such an inglorious end typical of many period Remainders. Easy to see how our estimate could be proven academic once bidding ends especially when one considers the Gem Uncirculated $2 Remainder that sold in our Summer 2026 Global Showcase Auction (Lot 20083) for $2,318 by the time bidding had ended. Estimate: $1,000 - $1,500. Provenance: From the Caine Collection. Click here for certification details from PMG.
