This note was the last series of National Currency Notes that were first issued in 1863. This type was conceived by Secretary of the Treasury Salmon P. Chase who devised a system of nationally chartered banks. Individual banks purchased U.S. government bonds and deposited them with the comptroller of the currency. For up to 90% of the profit, the comptroller would authorize the production of notes bearing the individual bank’s name.
One of the unique aspects of these notes is that they were issued during a time of significant consolidation in the banking industry. The First National Bank of St. Louis was involved in several mergers, which created one of the largest financial institutions in the region at that time. Collectors often find these notes intriguing due to their historical context and the relatively small number of small-size notes issued by this charter (about 358,962 compared to over 2 million large-size notes)?.
National Bank Notes, including those from Charter #170, were backed by U.S. government bonds, which added a layer of security that wasn't present in earlier private bank-issued notes, making them more trusted by the public.
