<B>Dallas, TX</B></I> - $10 1882 Brown Back Fr. 491 <B>The American Exchange NB</B></I> Ch. # (S)3623<BR> This is one of two Dallas Brown Backs in the collection, both representing extremely rare Friedberg numbers with signature combinations which could only occur because of title changes or orders for new denominations from already chartered banks. In this instance, the National Exchange Bank of Dallas elected to change its title to the American Exchange NB in July of 1905. Having been chartered in 1887, the bank would still having been issuing Brown Backs, and so a plate bearing the signatures of the then serving Treasury officials (Lyons and Treat) was prepared for the last two years of Brown Back issue bearing the new title by the bank. Fewer than ten examples of this Friedberg number have been recorded to date, with this Brown Back the sole example we can recall offering in any of our sales. Well circulated but intact <B>Very Good.</B></I> <BR><I>From The Thomas M.
