<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BRandM, post: 2118877, member: 22729&quot;]I splurged a bit to add to my NJ obsolete collection as I didn&#039;t see much in the way of counterstamps or tokens. I bought these from Allan Teal at the show on Thursday. As a bonus, I also met Krispy there. He was at the show working one of the tables. It was a pleasure to meet him after all this time.</p><p><br /></p><p>Not much history on these two banks. The Egg Harbor Bank was short-lived. They were incorporated in 1860 and closed only a year later in 1861. For a bank that was around for such a short time, they printed a huge variety of denominations. I have three other notes from this bank...$1, $3, $5, and $10. Still quite a few to go to complete the series though.</p><p><br /></p><p>The State Bank at New Brunswick was originally incorporated in 1812. It closed and was reorganized in 1873, but went out of business for good in 1877. A 66 year run isn&#039;t so bad. I like the vignettes on all three notes.</p><p><br /></p><p>Bruce</p><p>[ATTACH=full]401495[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]401496[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]401497[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
