<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gsalexan, post: 1676958, member: 24274&quot;]Another member gave me an idea for this thread, so I dug into my collection of obsolete stocks and ran them through my scanner. These are all banks that I think were likely to have issued either obsolete bank notes or National Bank Notes in their day. Can you match any of these stock certificates with notes from your collection? </p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ll start -- I have a nice share certificate from the Uncas National Bank in Norwich, CT. That bank also issued obsolete notes in the 1850s and I own a $1 proof, reprinted as part of the American Paper Money Collection issued by the American Bank Note Co. Since this bank existed into the 20th century, I&#039;m fairly certain it put out some National Bank Notes, too.</p><p><br /></p><p>And a few other 19th-century banks: the Bank of Kentucky in Louisville, the National Bank of Catasauqua, PA, and the Mutual Banking Company of Richmond, Virginia. These all seem like good candidates for matching obsolete notes.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
