I found this online. If the link is accurate, it's interesting that it is Utica, Ohio, a very small town that I'm somewhat familiar with. Usually any reference to Utica refers to Utica, NY. They were in business 1905-1935. It sounds like it's a pretty rare item. https://antiquemoney.com/national-b...y-from-the-first-national-bank-of-utica-7596/
Thanks. I was under the impression it was from Utica Nebraska, which is where Mom's side of family is from and my Mom has it in her collection. I will look further starting with your link.
Pretty sure this is it... https://antiquemoney.com/national-b...y-from-the-first-national-bank-of-utica-8811/ Thanks!

Oh, it's an ugly, ugly day. When I first glanced at that note, I read "DIGITAL CURRENCY" instead of "NATIONAL CURRENCY". What's wrong with me?
So did my Dad. And Schlitz (he had another name for it) and Pabst. I learned early on what not to drink and not get sick afterwards.
Utica Club Pilsner, where in the world do you come up these things? I looked it up and is still in business, family owned.
I'm curious about the Big W next to the Charter number 8811. I have not seen this on other similar notes. If anyone has a guiding clue on that question, any help would be appreciated.
My grandfather used to drink Schlitz. I didn't care for it, but he lived to the age of 97, so who's to say he was wrong? Plus he drank a glass of Port with dinner...
It's the region of the note. W stands for West. Regions for these notes include "N" for New England, "E" for East, "S" for South, "M" for Mid-West, "W" for West, and "P" for Pacific coast.
