Basic Design:
Rarity and Value: These aren’t traditionally thought of as especially rare bank notes. However, try to find an example in VF condition or better at will. It is tough to do. Many early banks only issued denominations of $5 and lower. Ten dollars went a long way in the 1860s and early 1870s. If you were fortunate enough to have a $10 bill then you probably spent it. That is why most examples tend to be heavily circulated. Contact us for value information. Don’t forget to check the serial number. Number 1 notes always sell for nice premiums.
Current Market Analysis: The most expensive notes from Nebraska were issued while Nebraska was still a territory. Only about ten notes like that are known to exist and they are all in heavily circulated condition. Pricing the other 99.9% of Nebraska notes can be difficult. Lots of notes exist that are not on the collector census. It seems like every five years Nebraska is red hot and then ice cold. Right now we are moving from hot to cold. First charter notes are of course very rare. There is actually a fairly large selection of nice brown backs, red seals, and blue seals. As always, notes from small towns will be worth more than notes from larger cities like Omaha and Lincoln.
