St. Johnsville, New York. Original $10 Fr. 409. First NB. Charter #375. PMG Very Good 10. A noted rarity on account of the type and denomination. This well-circulated Original Series $10 issued by the First National Bank of St. Johnsville (Charter# 375) was issued after the overprinting of charter numbers was mandated by Congress in 1874 and stands as the sole surviving example of its type recorded on this bank by the National Bank Note Census. Here one may also view honest detail retained by the left and right vignettes, but as well the engraved reproduction of William Henry Powell's DeSoto Discovering the Mississippi seen on the back. Even the penned signatures of Cashier Norris G. Dodge and President Jas. W. Cronkhite are extant, but legible in their respective panels lending this veritable survivor a number of qualities that are sure to be appreciated by bidders. Estimate: $1,000 - $1,500.
