A collection of California National Gold Bank Notes highlights Lyn Knight Currency Auctions’ Sept. 11-12 auction in Lenexa, Kan.

Lyn Knight said this NGBN collection was “built over the last 30 years and includes many of the greatest rarities that I sold the collector privately from the Amon Carter collection, and these were purchased from B. Max Mehl who had sold him the Harley Freeman collection in 1953-1954.”

Knight pointed to a $50 from the Farmers National Gold Bank of San Jose, saying, “There has not been a $50 NGBN of this quality sold at auction since the Grinnell sale.” He grades it fine-very fine.
