Ex - Heritage Numismatic Auctions, Inc.'s "Texas Collection," January 4, 2001, Lot 4125, where it was described as follows: "1875 $10 First Charter, Fr-419, Fine-VF. A gorgeous note with bold, original colors, fantastic vanity pen signatures, wonderful eye appeal, and solid paper for the grade. There are a few minor pinholes in the center, but these do not detract from the overall desirability of this rare note. This bank, in business from 1880 to 1929, is common in large size but First Charter issues are hardly so. There is a limited supply of First Charter notes that are available from anywhere in Texas, and this is one of the best to ever appear at public auction. Certain to inspire spirited bidding, this note would be a centerpiece in any collection of Texas National Bank Notes."


Ex - Heritage Numismatic Auctions, Inc.'s "Texas Collection," January 4, 2001, Lot 4124, where it was described as follows: "1875 $20 First Charter, Fr-434, Fine-VF. This note was described in the Bass Collection sale by Bowers & Merena as follows: "The top margin is trimmed rather tightly and is just into the design border, otherwise the margins are full. Some light soiling is evident, commensurate with the grade assigned." In addition, the colors are bright and original, and much crispness remains in the paper. A fantastic note, one of the finest First Charter Texas Nationals in existence. Certain to inspire spirited bidding, and destined for a prime spot in a fine collection.

It is truly amazing that we are able to offer two First Charter Nationals in the same sale from the same bank. In fact, this whole collection is incredible in its breadth and depth, and future generations of collectors will look back in awe at the availability of such an awesome range of rare and desirable Texas Nationals"
