content: National bank note from the German-American National bank of Washington, DC. $1-1-1-2. Charter 2358. This is a certified proof sheet for a 4-subject national bank note issued by the German-American National Bank in Washington, D.C., from the series of 1875. This bank was chartered in 1877 and went into receivership in 1878. Because the large two on the $2 note appears to lie reclining on its side, collectors have nicknamed this note from the early series the "lazy deuce". There are only two known examples among collectors of national bank notes for this bank.
