Basic Design:

Rarity and Value:  These typically aren’t prohibitively scarce. However, they usually do represent the earliest bank notes that are available from most institutions. A very generic note could be worth as little as $400. Notes from rare banks could be worth several thousand dollars. The best of the best could sell for more than $10,000. Contact us for details. Don’t forget to check the serial number. Number 1 notes always sell for nice premiums.

Current Market Analysis:  National bank notes from Indiana certainly aren’t romanticized or considered top trophy items. However, if you get the right mix of rarity and condition, then notes from Indiana can sell for as much money as traditionally more valuable states. Based on our experience, certain areas and towns tend to have hoarders looking to buy everything; even notes that should be common still sell for good money. Sadly, that rule only applies to about 5% of the common stuff out there. The other 95% can still be difficult to place. Pay close attention to town rarity. No single type of bank note is especially rare, the people collecting the state care about bank and town rarity over everything else.
