JASPER, MO… A unique National Currency $20 note from the First National Bank of Jasper, MO will be shown on public display on Friday, May 29 at the Jasper Memorabilia Museum in downtown Jasper. The low numbered note from the private collection of Dave Sorrick, known locally as “The Coin Collector”, will be available for viewing from 11:30am to 1:30pm at 107 W. Grand in the property of Robin and Greg Wampler, next to The Junkin Jewel Flea Market operated by Heather Gibson. This is a free event, and the public are invited to attend. Visitors may also browse the Jasper Memorabilia Museum at that time. Children are welcome but must be accompanied by an adult.
“I acquired this 1929 small-sized note recently from the estate of a banker from Southeast Kansas,” said Dave Sorrick, owner of In God We Trust LLC in Mindenmines, MO. “When I saw the note, it was ‘love at first sight’ and I commented to the family that I would like to add it to my personal collection. They obliged and now it takes its place alongside other National Currency notes from southeast Kansas and southwest Missouri in my collection.”
Sorrick will also display other National Currency notes from surrounding towns like Golden City and Lamar, MO.
