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:  We have handled a lot of great notes from Arkansas. There are lots of rare Arkansas notes, but you need more than just rarity to get the most money. Collectors are looking for notes with lots of eye appeal. Arkansas has a small population. Most of the better notes wind up in collections that are not in the state. Brown backs and first charter notes are tough to find. It is even tougher to find those types of notes in XF condition or better. We usually advise that notes from small towns have the most value. However, plenty of notes from larger cities like Fort Smith and Little Rock can sell for just as much money as notes from tiny communities.
