1929 $10 National Type 2 - Orange, VA (Charter 5438)

This 1929 Series $10 National Bank Note from The National Bank of Orange, Virginia, is a compelling piece of American banking history. Notes from smaller towns often have lower survival rates, and this is the only known 1929 Type 2 $10 for the bank.

Graded Very Fine 30 EPQ by PMG, this note demonstrates notable preservation with exceptional paper quality. The orientation of Alexander Hamilton's portrait remains bold and clear, aided by the strong contrast of the black and white design. The serial numbers and the bank charter number, 5438, are crisply printed in vivid red. The back of the note retains strong green details depicting the U.S. Treasury building. The margins are well-kept, and the overall eye appeal makes this note a robust representation of historical American currency.
