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.

Patterson, Cashier, and a completely missing signature for the President add to the appeal of this nicely centered note. President at the time was J. Sharp Wilson. Third Charters only during the large size era, with this being the finer of the two DBs known. Located on the confluence of the Beaver and Ohio Rivers in the Ohio Country in dispute during the French and Indian War, Beaver was the site of Fort McIntosh, a Revolutionary War era Patriot frontier fort. After the war, the fort was the home of the First American Regiment, the oldest active unit in the US Army. The fort was abandoned in 1788 and razed a short time later. Beaver was laid out in 1792. In 1800, it became the county seat of the newly formed Beaver County. Beaver County was carved out of Washington and Allegheny Counties in 1800, taking its name from the Beaver River. Not to be confused with Gov. James A. Beaver (Gov. of PA 1887-1891), born Oct 27, 1837 in Millerstown, PA.

After the name change in 5/29/20, the FNB in Bessemer chose to issue only $10s switching to sheets of 4x$10. Bessemer is situated in the midst of the iron ore and limestone district of Alabama, in the southern part of Jones Valley, SW of Birmingham. Iron ore was mined from the hills on the city's southeast side, coal is still mined to the north and west, and limestone deposits were also nearby. All three ingredients were necessary for steelmaking, which led to the area becoming a major steel center from about 1890 through the twentieth century. In 1900, Bessemer ranked eighth in population in the state, second in amount of capital invested in manufacturing, and fourth in the value of its manufactured product for the year. By 1911, ore mining, iron smelting, and the manufacture of iron and coke were the chief industries of Bessemer.
