- 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.

- Chatfield, MN - Bank of Chatfield $5 18__ MN-20 UNL, Hewitt B080-D5a. Proof. PCGS Very Choice New 64. The Bank of Chatfield is a very scarce bank, but of the seventeen notes confirmed in the 2006 census, five were issued notes and eight were remainders with red protectors. There were only four proofs known and they are the examples surveyed in the Newman collection in 2004. The bank ordered a plate with four denominations, $1-$2-$3-$5, but they had the American Bank Note Company print them in a staggered fashion (that is, some with all four denominations, then $1-$2-$3, and finally just $1-$2) in order to add up to their authorization of $49,000 in notes. This India paper proof is beautifully designed. There is no protector plate used, unlike the issued notes and remainders observed. Rural life is depicted as tranquil and idyllic on this note. The well-dressed young lady left of center holds a flower and looks serenely at the viewer. Roosters, hens and chicks are at lower left. At lower right, sheep and cows wander and rest by the water; a church and steeple are in the background. Numerical counters are in the top corners. At left, micro-numerals surround a lathe work background. At right, stylized flowers frame the numeral. This is noted as "Hole Punch Cancelled," as made. The Bank of Chatfield proofs from this sheet offered in the Newman Part VI sale were actively pursued. The $1 proof realized $6,463, the $2 proof brought $7,638, and the $3 position $8,225. This is the Hewitt plate note and is reported as unique; it is the only $5 proof from the bank of any variant. We would certainly expect equal enthusiasm for this note, the only reported proof and the final denomination remaining from the series. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society Realized $3290.00. Newman VII (Heritage Auctions, 10/2015), lot 18414. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

- Austin, MN - State Bank of Minnesota (1st) $5 October 5, 1858 MN-10 G6, Hewitt B040-D5a. Proof. PCGS Superb Gem New 67 PPQ. A second denomination from this rare first bank series from Austin, and also a Superb Gem India paper proof mounted on its original cardstock by the American Bank Note Company. This is the "B" position of two $5 notes that were engraved on the plate. The bucolic farm vignette shows a barefoot milkmaid seated upon the grass. She gazes at the viewer as she holds a flower. Two cows ready for milking are nearby, and the farmhouse is in the background. Numerical counters are in the upper corners. Below left, in a decorative oval frame, a portrait of Henry Clay. At lower right, a young girl with ringlets. The Hewitt population reported three proofs known in 2006, but only one "B" position was seen when the Newman collection was surveyed in June 2004. Noted as "Hole Punch Cancelled and "Mounted on Cardstock" as made. The first example, sold in Newman Part VI and also graded PCGS Superb Gem New 67PPQ, realized $4,465.

- Austin, MN - State Bank of Minnesota (1st) $1 October 5, 1858 MN-10 G2, Hewitt B040-D1a. Proof. PCGS Very Choice New 64. The Newman Part VI sale contained an unrivaled offering of 52 Minnesota obsolete proofs that were cut from sheets. Many were plated in the Shawn Hewitt Minnesota Obsolete note reference, and unique examples abounded. This is a rare bank title and the initial, rarer location of two (Minneapolis was the successor, 2nd title). The plate was initially engraved for this Austin location by the American Bank Note Company using a $1-$2-$5-$5 denomination structure. That plate's configuration and vignettes were maintained and re-engraved with the Minneapolis location for their 1862 State Auditor authorized notes (Hewitt-B360 series). This $1 denomination and the following $5 proof are important examples printed on India paper and mounted on original cardstock. At top center, a farm boy pats a black horse while its white companion looks toward the train passing in the distance. Numerical counters are in the top corners. At lower left, UNION, in an elaborately draped dress, leans on a pillar and gestures to her name on the column above. At lower right, a workman with a pickaxe and shovel takes a break to smoke his pipe while another guides a wheelbarrow along a plank pathway. The counter on the right shows an intricate swirl of micro-lettering. One of only two proofs listed on the Hewitt census and the first to be offered at public auction. The $2 proof from this Austin series realized $4,700 in the Newman Part Sale in April 2015. Noted as "Hole Punch Cancelled, Mounted on Cardstock" and the Hewitt plate note. This is an important and impressive rarity. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society Realized $3995.00. Newman VII (Heritage Auctions, 10/2015), lot 18412.

- Taunton, MA - Taunton Bank $5 1862 MA-1220 G78a. PCGS Fine 12. Taunton was once known as the "Silver City," and this fully issued National Bank Note Company $5 note boasts a custom vignette showing the Reed and Barton Manufacturing Co. at that time. Taunton appears to have been a very dynamic city in the 1860s. The wide vignette at top shows boats sailing on the river and a train chugging along. Between are piles of coal. The city view features a large train depot, factories and a steeple. At top right is a counter composed of the numeral "5" over a spiraling octet of disks with the number "5" upon them. Interesting end panels show a central "5" over a linear group of disks with the number "5"; the top four are right-side-up and the bottom four are upside-down. In green are: a frame all around, a micro-lettered guilloche at bottom center, and cartouches composed of numeric/textual disks at the sides. The note has a typical "New England" trim and small path of foxing on the cashier's signature at the lower left. We have only seen a few issued notes from the series and this is the finest.
