On February 25, 1863 the United States Congress passed the Loan Bill better known as the National Banking Act. Under this system, all banks that were granted charters by the United States Government were allowed to deposit government bonds with the Treasurer of the United States, after which they could issue notes in an amount that was limited to 90% of the par value of the bonds so given. The banks would earn interest on the bonds and would also have the abil1ty of issuing paper money with their own imprints and bank names, thus National Bank Notes were created.
