Basic Design:

Rarity and Value:  It is currently thought that only about 40 of these are known to exist from all banks across the country. These were all printed before 1875. You can appreciate that $100 was a tremendous amount of money during that time period of United States history. For the most part, only large banks in major metropolitan areas had the ability and desire to issue such a high denomination. Prices start at $10,000 and go up 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:  There is no one word to accurately describe the market for Texas nationals. The state is so expansive and there are so many banks and towns that each bank is really its own market. A general rule across the entire state is that first charter notes are scarce. Other than that, brown backs and red seals could be worth $10,000 or they could be worth $500. The rarest blue seals usually top out at around $5,000. We can’t talk about Texas nationals without talking about The Philpott/Moody collection. It consists of thousands nationals and they are usually the best and rarest examples for each bank. The reality is that there are hundreds of very rare Texas nationals and hundreds more waiting to be found.
