Magnificent NBNCo Note with Eagle Vignette Used on $100 Legal Tender Notes
Taunton, MA- Taunton Bank $500 18__ as G130a Proof PMG About
Uncirculated 50.The bank was incorporated in 1812 and remained in business until becoming the Taunton National Bank in 1865. Printed and designed by National Bank Note Company, this $500 design features a fantastic eagle vignette that was also used on the first $100 United States Legal Tender notes (Fr. 165-167b). An oval male portrait, taken from life, is at lower right and an intricate green protector panel and border as well as two ornate black 500 counters complete the design. The note is printed on India paper, with minor stains and equally minor edge tears, mounted on cardstock with five POCs in the signature lines. All high denomination color Proofs are both excessively rare and popular with collectors and this note's great provenance, once being part of The Eric P. Newman Collection, will also stoke interest. This marks the third time we have offered this note in the last decade. The prices realized have been volatile, bringing $30,550 in 2015 and $13,200 in 2020. We believe that this third offering should settle someplace in between those two price levels in today's market environment.
