Auction: 312 - Numismatic Collector's Series Sale
Lot: 1067
MT. Great Falls. Ch. 2476. Northwestern NB. $20 1875 First Charter. Fr. 437. No. K635966.This is both the second title and location for this charter number, as originally was the First NB of Fort Benton, chartering May 14, 1880, then moving 42 miles to the southwest and changing to the present title and location on April 15, 1891. If you want to collect a denomination set of First Charters from Montana, only three people can accomplish that feat, as this is one of only three $20´s known for the entire state. This is the only example to appear at auction in the past 30 years, so for the time being this is the ONLY possibility for one to complete such a set, let alone acquire a Montana First Charter $20. Very Good, with internal separations noted along the folds at center.
