Lebanon, Kentucky. $5 1875. Fr. 402. The Marion NB. Charter #2150. PMG About Uncirculated 55.The Marion National Bank of Lebanon was one of four financial institutions in the town. It issued over $3,200,00 during its 62 years of business. It opened 9 years after the beginning of the national banking era in 1874 and closed its doors at the very end, in 1935. At the time of close, a mere $9,295 remained outstanding. This highly ornate Five Dollar First Charter design which shows here with strictly original paper and strong inks throughout. Well embossed overprints are easily seen through the intricate back layout and sharp signatures further the appeal. Until this discovery, no original or 1875 series notes where known to the collecting community. An incredible note to own and part of a wonderful grouping of Lebanon nationals we are offering this evening.
