Lot 2992
Original Series, $1 National Bank Note. The National Exchange Bank, Weston, WV. Ch. # 1607. PMG Net Very Good 8. Fr-380. . KL-1086. This is a rare type from West Virginia. Only 18,000 notes from 5 different banks issued this denomination, thus it is not surprising that a mere six Aces from all West Virginia banks have survived. Three $1s, or half the population from the state, have surfaced from this bank. This piece is formerly from the Q. David Bowers collection of First Charter Aces. It has a number of edge splits and tears of varying size and importance, and the PMG label reads "repairs." While low grade, it is an important offering of a denomination that isn't often offered from this state. When last sold by Stack's in September, 2010 as part of the Bowers collection, it brought $3,737.50; when Mr. Bowers purchased this note in 2004 he paid the sum of $6,723.
Estimated Value $3,500 - 4,500.
