San Diego, California. $5 1902 Date Back. Fr. 590. American NB. Charter

One of Two $5 Date Backs Recorded on this Bank San Diego, California. $5 1902 Date Back. Fr. 590. American NB. Charter #7418. PCGS Currency Very Fine 25 PPQ. A great rarity from the likes of San Diego. This evenly circulated Series of 1902 $5 Date Back was issued by the short-lived American National Bank (Charter# 7418) which had organized in 1904 and fell to liquidation at the hands of the First National Bank of San Diego (Charter# 3050) in 1917 shortly after the Aldrich-Vreeland legislation expired. Undoubtedly such circumstances readily explain why only 10 notes are recorded here by the National Bank Note Census and why strong realizations are realized each and every time a note on this charter appears for the benefit of bidders. Held together with signatures attributable to Cashier Charles L. Williams and President Joseph Weller Sefton, (Jr.) which are bold and effortlessly noticed in their respective panels, bidders are met with a visual impact that's further magnified in its significance by the grade assigned and emphasizes a degree of originality that's all-too-often lost even at this grade level. Noted for "Premium Paper Quality" by PCGS Currency. Estimate: $6,000 - $8,000.

Estimate:£2,691.09
