<B>Whitesboro, NY</B></I> - $5 1902 Plain Back Fr. 606 <B>The Whitestown NB</B></I> Ch. # (E)11284<BR> A truly rare note from the only National Bank chartered in this Oneida County hamlet. Chartered in January of 1919, this bank elected to circulate only large $5 notes, foregoing any issue of Series 1929 examples. By 1935, only $510 was outstanding. Three notes are known, two quite low grade and this specimen, which is at the opposite end of the grade scale. It last appeared at public sale in a September, 1980 Hickman-Oakes sale. The sole appearance of any other note from this bank came back in May of 2003, where we sold a low grade example as part of the Sabis Collection of New York notes. Pen signed <B>Very Fine+++,</B></I> a great note worth whatever it realizes this evening. <BR><I>From The Thomas A. Bergin Collection</B></I><BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
