Basic Design:
Rarity and Value: These are pretty scarce notes. Not many banks chose to issue such a high denomination in the late 19th century. The most generic examples in circulated condition are still worth around $3,000 each. There is a lot of room for that price to get higher. The condition and bank of issue are both extremely important. Contact us for details. Don’t forget to check the serial number. Number 1 notes always sell for nice premiums.
Current Market Analysis: All first charter bank notes from Idaho are very scarce. Brown backs can either be issued as territorials or as state notes. Territorials are of course far more desirable. However, even state notes are still in demand. There are a surprising number of nice red seals known from Idaho. However, that doesn’t mean that they are cheap. Of course the bank of issue is always very important. Most notes you see are from Boise. Notes from smaller towns are going to be more appealing to most collectors. Towns that have ties to Native American tribes like Nez Perce, Blackfoot, etc. are always very popular. There are plenty of notes from small farming towns that can be worth big money.
