Rarity and Value: These are rare and beautiful bank notes. At least 55 are known to exist today. That number usually creeps up by one or two examples every few years. So these are getting slightly more common as time passes. However, they will always be relatively rare. Very few banks issued such a high denomination during this time period. Values start at around $10,000 and go up quickly from there. Contact us for details. Don’t forget to check the serial number. Number 1 notes always sell for nice premiums.
Current Market Analysis: The market for Michigan nationals is a little bit soft right now. I wouldn’t call it bad, but it can take a long time to find the right buyer. Banks in suburban Detroit towns are popular. You should also keep an eye out for notes from Upper Peninsula towns. Despite having a small population, lots of people have found memories of vacationing in that area and collect the notes. Today Detroit has a bad reputation. However, at one point in time it was a very wealthy old money type town. Lots of early notes are available from Detroit. Otherwise, anything printed before 1900 from Michigan is likely scarce. Rare notes tend to be found in circulated condition. Choice examples are much more difficult to locate.
