$20 1902PB The First N.B. of Delano, CA Ch. #9195 PMG Choice Fine 15. The edges are slightly rough and, in my opinion, I would grade the note a bit lower than PMG; nonetheless an evenly circulated and presentable example.

$20 1902DB The First N.B. of Modesto, CA Ch. #(P)3136 Good. Rough edges, a few holes, and a bit of rust. A candidate for professional restoration. Even so, it actually is reasonably presentable considering the amount of circulation it's seen.

$5 1929I The First N.B. of Pacific Grove, CA Ch. #13375 Fine+. A pleasing note from this Monterey County hamlet, a former Methodist retreat known as “Butterfly Town, U.S.A” for the annual return of monarch butterflies to the town as a wintering habitat. . . . FACE . . . BACK . . . 550.00
$5 1902RS The Crocker N.B. of San Francisco, CA Ch. #(P)3555 Fine-VF. An evenly circulated, mid-grade, San Francisco Red Seal, and scarce and in demand as such. . . . FACE . . . BACK . . . 1395.00

$20 1882BB The First N.B. of Colorado Springs, CO Ch. #2179 VF. One pinhole in the lower left corner noted for accuracy. A bnright, attractive, well centered example with strong signatures.
