Sweetwater, Texas. $10 1902 Plain Back. Fr. 632. City NB. Charter #11468. PCGS Banknote Fine 12 Details. Missing Corner, Small Edge Splits. A tough note from Nolan County in the vicinity of Abilene, Sweetwater owes its name to the English translation of the Kiowa word "Mobeetie" which speaks to area's bitter-tasting gypsum streams. Yet like many towns in this part of Texas, Sweetwater is a tough prospect for National Bank Notes. Here the National Bank Note Census records just nine non-institutional notes on the City National Bank (Charter# 11468) which had organized in 1919. This same bank later fell to liquidation little more than a decade later in 1931 at the hands of the First National Bank of Sweetwater (Charter# 5781) which records an even smaller population of only two pieces in the National Bank Note Census which does well to underscore the rarity of most National Bank Notes from the far-flung reaches of rural Texas regardless of the issuing bank. PCGS Banknote comments "Missing Corner, Small Edge Splits." Estimate: $1,000 - $1,500. Provenance: From the Jack Copeland Currency Collection, Part IV.
