Cashier: J.G. Moore, President: George Wingfield

Only the $10 denomination is common for this bank. This is one of three examples known for the denomination and should be considered as very rare.
When the estate of LeVere Redfield was disposed of, few people knew he had several sheets of Winnemucca $10 notes. These were not the subject of the famous bidding between A-Mark and the Bowers & Ruddy challenge in a Reno court room, but had been previously sold by the estate. This accounts for the relative abundance of these notes, but consider "abundance" as a very loose term, only 26 have been reported in the register of serial numbers.
