Basic Design:

Rarity and Value:  John Sherman is pictured on the front of each third charter $50 bill. Right now there are only about 100 1902 $50 red seals known to exist! That means that even generic examples should sell for a few thousand dollars. If you have a note from a rare bank or rare state, that also happens to be in great condition, then the value could easily be in excess of $10,000. Please contact us for exact values. 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.
