<B>Mexia, TX</B></I> - $5 1882 Brown Back Fr. 467 <B>The First NB</B></I> Ch. # 3014<BR> We are pleased to have this rarity in our hands again. Previously it was part of our 2006 Central States Signature Auction where it was described, "This note represents a true miracle of survival, coming from a bank which issued Brown Backs, Red Seals and Date Backs only before liquidating early in 1919. Just two other examples are known from here, both of which are $50 Brown Backs, one ensconced perhaps forever in the Philpott/Moody Foundation holdings, and the other a damaged and heavily repaired specimen last seen in 2001, when it was offered by Heritage as part of the Ivy collection. This piece is an unmolested, pen signed <B>Fine-Very Fine,</B></I> with its only minor detractions some splits at the folds and a few pinholes." <BR><BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
