Description:
Bank note - state of Texas $10, from the Commercial Agricultural Bank, Galveston. The C&A was the only bank authorized to issue currency in Texas by virtue of its 1835 charter granted by Mexico. However, this banking privilege remained dormant until 1848 when Samuel L. Williams opened the bank and operated it for ten years. Issued examples of notes from this bank are listed as SENC, 'Surviving Example Not Confirmed,', We therefore assume that this note is a good quality counterfeit. Condition is poor
