Basic Design:
Rarity and Value: William McKinley is featured on each $10 third charter note. The ten dollar denomination is the most common 1902 red seal. However, it is still usually quite scarce. Red seals were only printed between 1902 and 1908. Survivors usually represent the best available note from a bank. The exact value is always based on the condition and bank of issue. It is not unusual for scarcer examples to be worth thousands of dollars. Please contact us for details. Don’t forget to check the serial number. Number 1 notes always sell for nice premiums.
Current Market Analysis: We are surprised at how much the market for Washington national bank notes has softened since it peaked around 2006. It seems like the state has a lot to offer. First off, there are plenty of wealthy collectors living there. Geography really isn’t that important either, which is refreshing. The top 3% of the market is still very capable of being worth staggering amount of money, but it is the top 20% that we think should be worth more. You can challenge yourself by trying to collect just territorials, which would be quite difficult and expensive. Nice 1882 brown backs and 1902 red seals are scarce. There are even plenty of blue seal banks that are considered rare.
