Commercial Banking Company of Sydney LIMITED £5 proof, circa 1905–1910, PMG 63 EPQ

Australia 1905–1910 - Commercial Banking Company of Sydney LIMITED £5 Specimen Proof (Pick Unlisted)

Beyond its immediate visual appeal, the note documents the final years of Australian private-banknote autonomy. Prior to the 1910 Australian Notes Act, private banks like the CBC were empowered to issue their own circulating currency. Large denominations such as this £5 were central to interbank settlement, bullion purchases, commercial clearing, and the financial infrastructure of Sydney’s rapidly expanding economy. Read more →

United States 1929 Type 1 - 10 Dollars National Bank Note - The Farmers National Bank of Sussex, New Jersey Charter 1221 (Fr. 1801-1)

This note is a Series of 1929 Type 1 ten-dollar issue, carrying the vertical charter numbers 1221 at both margins and the red-brown Treasury seal at right. Type 1s were the first of the small-size nationals introduced that year, still bearing the ornate "National Currency" title and traditional layout derived from earlier large-size designs. It features the Jones–Woods federal signature pair and printed local officer names, continuing the national-local dual structure established by the 1863 Act. Read more →

United States 1929 Type 1 - 10 Dollars National Bank Note The First National Bank of Taylorville Illinois Fr1801-1 CH 3579 PMG 30 Very Fine

United States 1929 – 10 Dollars Type 1 National Bank Note – The First National Bank of Taylorville, Illinois Charter 3579 (Fr.1801-1)

This Series 1929 Type 1 ten-dollar note from The First National Bank of Taylorville, Illinois (Charter 3579) is a national-level rarity and a true anomaly in U.S. banking history. The bank officially ceased operations in October 1929-barely months after the introduction of small-size National Bank Notes-making it one of the first casualties of the transition from large-size to small-size currency. Although government records indicate that no 1929 notes were released for this charter, this example, serial E000176A, proves that a small batch of $10 notes briefly entered circulation before the bank’s collapse.

United States 1902 – 20 Dollars Large Size Plain Back National Bank Note – The First National Bank of Taylorville, Illinois Charter 3579 (Fr.650-652)

Large-size 1902 Plain Back twenty from The First National Bank of Taylorville, Illinois, Charter 3579, a seldom-seen issuer that entered receivership on October 18, 1929 at the very start of the small-size era. Organized and chartered in October 1886, the bank operated for more than four decades, but its total national-currency output was modest for an Illinois institution and survivorship today is extremely thin.

United States 1902 – 5 Dollars Large Size Plain Back National Bank Note – The Thomas County National Bank of Colby, Kansas Charter 13076 Error Note (Fr.609)

Organized in May 1927, The Thomas County National Bank of Colby, Kansas, was one of the last institutions chartered under the National Banking Act, entering the system just as small-town banks faced increasing consolidation pressures. Chartered as number 13076, it was led by cashier N. Reimers and president W. D. Ferguson, whose engraved signatures appear boldly in dark ink on this note. Despite its late founding date, the bank issued both large-size 1902 Plain Backs and small-size 1929 series notes before the National system’s absorption into the FDIC framework in the mid-1930s.

United States 1929 Type 1 - 5 Dollars National Bank Note The Thomas County National Bank of Colby Kansas Charter 13076 raw circulated example with signatures of N Reimers and W D Ferguson

United States 1929 - 5 Dollars Type 1 National Bank Note - The Thomas County National Bank of Colby, Kansas Charter 13076 (Friedberg 1800-1)

Although showing significant circulation wear, with creasing and handling folds typical of long service life, the note retains full design integrity and legible ink. Its condition illustrates what a surviving piece of Depression-era regional currency truly looked like after years in use. As one of the few known small-size survivors from this short-lived charter, this note fills a crucial link between the 1902 large-size period and the uncut 1929 pair retained by President Ferguson himself.

United States 1902 5 Dollars National Bank Note, The First National Bank of Youngstown, Ohio, Blue Seal Plain Back, Friedberg 600, Charter 3, PMG 15 Choice Fine, serial Z929031D with bank serial 175660

United States 1902 - 5 Dollars Blue Seal Plain Back National Bank Note - The First National Bank of Youngstown, Ohio Charter 3 (Friedberg 600)

Large‑size National Currency from a single‑digit charter. The First National Bank of Youngstown carried Charter 3, issued at the very start of the National Banking era. Low charter numbers stayed with an institution across redesigns, so CH 3 on a 1902 large‑size note directly links back to the earliest adopters of the 1863 system. Read more →

United States 1928G 2 Dollars Legal Tender Note with red seal and star replacement serial number *03707599A, PMG 66 EPQ Gem Uncirculated, featuring Thomas Jefferson portrait and vivid red overprints

United States 1928G - 2 Dollars Legal Tender Note Red Seal Star Replacement (Friedberg 1508*)

The 1928 series marked a pivotal design transition in American paper money. For the first time, the small-size format standardized dimensions across all denominations while preserving key artistic elements from the large-size issues. Thomas Jefferson’s engraved portrait, derived from Gilbert Stuart’s neoclassical rendering, dominates the face, flanked by intricate lathe-work and geometric scroll patterns. The bright red Treasury seal and serials create a dramatic contrast against the black intaglio engraving, establishing the iconic 'red seal' aesthetic that became synonymous with Legal Tender Notes for decades.

Gold Certificates were obligations payable in gold coin to the bearer on demand, a clause prominently displayed on the face of the note. These certificates functioned as direct claims on gold reserves held by the United States Treasury, circulating alongside Federal Reserve Notes and Silver Certificates during the late gold standard period. The 1928 series marked the transition from large-size to small-size format, standardizing dimensions across denominations while preserving the intricate intaglio artistry of earlier designs.
