Rarity and Value: These were printed as early as 1875 and as late as 1901. Ten dollars is definitely a tougher denomination for this series. The value of any early note like this is just based on the condition and bank of issue. Generic examples typically sell for around $1,000. There is certainly room for that price to be considerably higher; it just depends on the above mentioned factors. Please contact us for details. Don’t forget to check the serial number. Number 1 notes always sell for nice premiums.
Current Market Analysis: National bank notes from Indiana certainly aren’t romanticized or considered top trophy items. However, if you get the right mix of rarity and condition, then notes from Indiana can sell for as much money as traditionally more valuable states. Based on our experience, certain areas and towns tend to have hoarders looking to buy everything; even notes that should be common still sell for good money. Sadly, that rule only applies to about 5% of the common stuff out there. The other 95% can still be difficult to place. Pay close attention to town rarity. No single type of bank note is especially rare, the people collecting the state care about bank and town rarity over everything else.
