One of Two Hotchkiss Small Size Reported - First Ever Public Offering

Hotchkiss, CO - $10 1929 Ty. 1 The First National Bank Ch. # 5976 PMG Very Fine 20.
This is the first note that we have been privileged to offer from this very rare bank that was the lone issuer in this small southwestern Colorado locale of a mere several hundred people. The First National opened its doors in 1901, maintained a circulation of just $25,000, and then exited the banking scene in 1930. Not surprisingly, just two small size (and five large) are known from this charter. This offering is the finer of the known pair of Series 1929 examples and the first to ever appear at public sale. It has some staining and pinholes, but remains attractive for the grade. This rare note will certainly be of interest to the many collectors of this popular state.
