Owner's Description

Pierre, SD The NB of Commerce Ch. # (W)4279 PMG 20 $10 1902 DB Fr. 619 SN 612/U657518 pp C/116 Feb. 14, 1910 A very scarce Pierre bank which issued large notes only before liquidating in 1925. This bright example possesses pleasing color and beautiful signature of V.V. Ketchum, Cashier surviving, while President A.W. Ewert's signature is has faded away. Founded in 1880 on the east bank of the Missouri River opposite Fort Pierre, Pierre has been the state capital since South Dakota gained statehood on November 2, 1889. It was challenged by Huron for the capital and won because of its location in the geographic center of the state. Fort Pierre was named after Pierre Chouteau, Jr., a major American fur trader from St. Louis, Missouri, who was of colonial French origin.
