Description: Conrad Sophasath Collection. The First National Bank of Amboy, Illinois. The Great Depression saw the demise of the Amboy bank on October 2, 1934. To the cataloger's knowledge, this specific brownback is both the earliest note and the highest grade specimen extant, and it also features terrific, sharp brown signatures. Even for type purposes, the appearance nears ideal for extremely-fine as it includes lovely, broad margins.

This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.
