1929 Type 2 $10 Fort Kent, ME - 1st NB- PMG VF-25 - Rare Charter14,000 Series
Some banknotes are rare because few were printed. Others are rare because they carry a whole place with them. The First National Bank in Fort Kent $10 Type 2 note does both.
It belongs to Maine’s only 14,000-charter national bank, a narrow and desirable slice of the National Bank Note series. Only 2,916 Type 2 $10 notes were emitted from this bank, and roughly ten are known to have surfaced. That is enough to make collectors pay attention. Add the remote border setting, the “Fort” in the town name, the Aroostook War connection, and the northern end of U.S. Highway 1, and the note becomes more than currency. It becomes a small paper witness to a specific corner of American history.
Shipping and Returns
Shipping and Delivery
We pride ourselves on prompt delivery. If a coin is purchased on the website or over the phone and PayPal is the payment method, we will make every effort to send it the following day. Exceptions to this will be when we are at a show, in which case the coin(s) will ship when we return to the office. If check or money order is the payment method, we will deposit the check/money order and ship once payment has cleared.
All of our shipments are USPS Priority mail or FedEx (depending on value). Signature confirmation is required for packages valued at $250 or above. We believe this is the best way to protect all parties from lost or stolen packages. Of course all packages are insured for the full purchase price. Tracking information will also be provided.
Returns
All coins we sell come with a no questions asked 30 day return privilege. We simply ask you let us know if a coin is being returned before the thirty days have expired. The last thing we want is someone to be unhappy with a coin purchase and will gladly issue a prompt refund once the coin is returned in its original holder and condition.
