NV. Ely. Ch.P8561. First National Bank of Ely. $5. 1902 DB. Fr. 592. No.Y483829/1134. Plate F. Fine+, with good color and contrast, and delicate violet stamped signatures. The lower margin is cut unevenly and tight in several places.

Although a new denomination and type wouldn´t be very exciting for banks
in many states, this note is on a better bank in a very avidly collected state
with only 16 issuing banks. It has probably been quite a few years since the last new Nevada denomination/type combination surfaced.

With no red seals known, this is one of the earliest survivors on this bank. The census shows only one other 1902 Dated Back note, a $10 note which grades Good, and was auctioned in 1995.
