Auction 362 | Lot 18116 » National Bank Notes » Illinois
Chicago, IL - $100 1882 Brown Back Fr. 520 The Metropolitan NB Ch. # 3179
An extremely rare Chicago bank and type, with the census from here standing at just four notes from the bank and just a dozen $100 Brown Backs from all Chicago banks combined. This example is listed in the census as Very Good, an outgrowth of its sale last year in a New York auction (by a coin auction house) where it was clearly erroneously graded, as the piece realized almost $7000 despite the sparse attendance at the sale. The note is actually a bright Very Fine, with a couple of tiny splits in its oversize top margin that affect nothing. It's just a hair lower grade than the Herget example, a $100 Brown Back from here which realized $11,500 back in our FUN 2003 sale. Expect this piece to now reach or exceed...

Auction 362 | Lot 18089 » National Bank Notes » Hawaii
Honolulu, Territory of Hawaii - $5 1882 Date Back Fr. 537 The First NB Ch. # (P)5550
A basically problem-free territorial from what became this nation's 50th state. The bottom margin is non-existent, with the design cut in just a hair on both sides, but the top and side margins are extra broad. The signatures are strong, and there are no flaws in the paper save for a couple of insignificant pinholes and a trivial margin tear at the top. Very Fine, a common enough note but never one that seems to have enough supply to meet the always high demand from collectors.

Greenup, IL - $10 1902 Date Back Fr. 617 The Greenup NB Ch. # (M)8115
A no apologies Very Fine from the only bank in town to have any examples represented in the census. Tonight's example has a jumbo upper margin and slightly trimmed in lower margin. The officers' ink signatures are fully present without even a hint of fading or degradation of any kind. By 1935 only $2,900 remained in circulation of the large size emission from here. This is a note that is attractive and scarce enough that its ending bid levels may constitute a surprise this evening.

Logansport, IN - $10 1929 Ty. 2 The NB of Logansport Ch. # 13580
While Type 1 serial number one notes are listed in the census, this Type 2 example is newly to that listing, having been ensconced in the Zurawski holdings for the better part of thirty years. While clearly never circulated and still displaying its full embossing, the note has picked up a couple of storage folds, necessitating a grade of About Uncirculated.
