    Minneapolis, MN - Minneapolis Bank $2 March 1, 1864 MN-80 UNL, Hewitt B340-D2a. Face Proof. PCGS Very Choice New 64 Apparent. The Newman collection contained a superb face proof sheet and two issued notes from this important big city bank that became the First National Bank of Minneapolis (charter #710) on June 1, 1865. The bank and its successor redeemed the issued notes at par, and only $660 was recorded as unredeemed in 1870. The bank ordered a $1-$2-$5-$10 face plate from the American Bank Note Company and paired it with a stock security back plate. They only issued $40,000 in notes, showing relative restraint compared to some of the frontier banks. This India paper face proof mounted on original cardstock, without green protector, is the only example reported (though the series and type is known as "Proprietary Modern Proof" made for production studies by the ABN) and was printed in 1864. In an oval frame, beneath the curving title and above the arced denomination is a rather whimsical vignette of a young girl playing dress-up with pearl necklaces. Numerical counters are on either side. In the upper corners are "2" counters on lathe work. Sir Edwin Landseer's Monarch of the Glen is at lower left; at lower right, a screaming eagle with wings upraised is upon a tor. A very bold proof and though Apparent, this is only for some scattered, very trivial foxing noted as "Minor Stains." The noted "Hole Punch Cancelled" is as made, in the India paper only, not through the card. A major rarity, exquisitely engraved with a trio of lovely American Bank Note Company vignettes.

    La Crescent, MN - La Crescent Bank $1 July 16, 1859 MN-55 G2, Hewitt B220-D1. Proof. PCGS Very Choice New 64 PPQ. This is only the second offering of this issuer at public auction and there are only three notes from than bank, all this type, enumerated on the census. The La Crescent bank never opened. Daniel Wells, Jr. from Milwaukee made the proper filings in June 1859, and authorization for the American Bank Note Company to engrave the $1-$1 configured plate came rapidly enough to print India paper proofs. However, the 12,500 impressions ordered never were printed and only the two proofs in the Newman Collection and the falsely signed proof illustrated in Haxby (in a museum collection) are on the census. This "B" position India paper proof is the second ever cataloged and offered at auction. It has a symmetrical, yet dynamic, layout. The central vignette is cupped under the arced title, and shows a woman holding a milking stool, with her pail on the ground beside her. As she shields her eyes from the sun, an enthusiastic boy points toward something in the distance. The scene is flanked by "1" counters with micro-lettering swirling around the edges. They, in turn are adjacent to large, intricate "1" numerals. Noted as "Hole Punch Cancelled" as made. The initial public offering of this type, a slightly finer graded PCGS Gem New 65PPQ, realized $7,050 in the Newman Part VI sale. This is a tremendous opportunity to bid upon one of the elite proof Obsoletes from Minnesota, and is the final example available of the two discovered in the Newman cabinet. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society Realized $4935.00. Newman VII (Heritage Auctions, 10/2015), lot 18419. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

    Hastings, MN - Thorne's Bank $1 Sept. 1, 1863 MN-45 G2A, Hewitt B180-D1. PCGS Very Fine 20. The Thorne's Bank is a private banker title, most often seen on New York State notes. In this case, it was named for James L. Thorne, the bank president, signed by him at lower right and, to add to it all, shows his custom engraved portrait. The note is beautifully engraved and printed by the American Bank Note Co., N.Y. Above the title, a winged cherub is rolling an 1863 Seated Liberty silver dollar. A panoramic view of the town, railroad, river and grazing field is behind. In an oval frame at lower left, a girl cuddles puppies. At the lower left, Thorne's portrait. The green security back mimics the initial Federal Legal Tender notes with three large darker shaded dies. The center has the obligation "Secured by the Pledge of Public Stocks of the United States," which indicates this bank's soundness. James L. Thorne emigrated from England at age 20, settling first in Batavia, New York, then moving to Hastings in 1856. In addition to operating this bank, he also served as mayor. There were only $622 in notes left unredeemed in 1869, and the bank was succeeded by the Merchants National Bank of Hastings (charter #1538). The type is not rare now since a group of hole cancelled notes appeared some years back, but most are low grade. This is an outstanding example, with wide margins and vibrant back color. One of the finest known. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society Realized $4700.00. Newman VII (Heritage Auctions, 10/2015), lot 18418. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

    Hastings, MN - Bank of Hastings $1 Oct. 1, 1863 MN-40 G2a, Hewitt B160-D1b. PCGS Fine 15 Apparent. As we discussed in the Newman Part VI sale catalog, most fully signed and issued notes from Minnesota are classified rare to very rare. Owning just a few different types places you in the advanced Minnesota note collector community. A vast majority of the issued notes were redeemed by the banks, cancelled and properly destroyed. Even the scant few that might remain after the banks closed would have been redeemed at the State Auditor's office with designated funds (this bank's notes were redeemed at par). The State Auditor's office would officially destroy remainder unissued sheets and record those events. The well-engraved Bank of Hastings issued notes are not impossible to encounter, but still rare. This note was engraved and printed by the American Bank Note Co., N.Y. with a green face protector ONE. The vignette under the curving title shows a riverboat gliding along, with other boats in the background. Combination textual/numerical counters are in the upper corners. At lower left, a man pats a happy dog. A serene farmwoman with grain and a sickle is at lower right. The 2006 census showed the population at a firm dozen, all issued notes and no proofs, with this note among them. There are five $1 notes, but there might be a few others that are unreported. Noted with "Small Repair at Bottom Left." The $2 issued note from the Newman Part VI sale realized $3,055 graded PCGS Very Fine 20 Apparent. This is a bright, very attractive example. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society Realized $2585.00. Newman VII (Heritage Auctions, 10/2015), lot 18417. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

    Garden City, MN - Farmers Bank (1st) $5 October 10, 1858 MN-30 G8, Hewitt B120-D5. Proof. PCGS Gem New 65 PPQ. This is a scarce bank and the Newman Collection proofs are superb examples. There are three $5 proofs cited in the census, and this is a candidate for the finest. It is a boldly inked and printed India paper proof mounted on original cardstock by the American Bank Note Company. Like so many of the Minnesota proofs, this was imaged in June 2004, while Shawn Hewitt and Gil Sem visited St. Louis, and used as the Hewitt plate note. A wide scene of cattle in and around the water is above the title. Lathe work "5" counters in the top corners have a flower motif within and floral sprays around. At the lower corners are somber portraits of children, with the boy at left and the girl at right. Noted as "Hole Punch Cancelled" and "Mounted on Cardstock" as made. The first three proof denominations ($1, $2, and $3) from this sheet sold in Newman Part VI for $6,169 $6,463, and $6,473. This Hewitt plate note Gem is the final example from the set available and represents an important opportunity. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society Realized $2350.00.

    Garden City, MN - Farmers Bank (1st) $2 October 10, 1858 MN-30 G4, Hewitt B120-D2-3. PCGS Fine 15 Apparent. This is a scarce first bank location (the others were Mankato and Shakopee), with a comparatively generous note population for a Minnesota bank. In 2006, the census showed seventeen notes total, with the majority observed proofs. Issued notes from the bank are extremely rare. A beautifully styled plate was ordered from the American Bank Note Company to print this series. To the left and right of the curved title are "2" counters on lathe work backgrounds. Next to each, toward the edge of the note, a cherub is cupped into a cartouche. At the bottom left, a man smokes a pipe as he sits on his horse; the other man, hat in hand, rests on a fence. The scene at bottom right shows boys trying to subdue a wild horse that appears to have thrown or knocked down the man lying on the ground. There apparently were three issued notes known in 2006. Noted with "Hinge Remnants on Back; Pinholes." The note has much paper body, is nicely margined, and should be considered a choice example of an issued note from a rare Minnesota bank. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society Realized $763.75. Newman VII (Heritage Auctions, 10/2015), lot 18415. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.
