Rarity and Value: These are rare and beautiful bank notes. At least 55 are known to exist today. That number usually creeps up by one or two examples every few years. So these are getting slightly more common as time passes. However, they will always be relatively rare. Very few banks issued such a high denomination during this time period. Values start at around $10,000 and go up quickly from there. Contact us for details. Don’t forget to check the serial number. Number 1 notes always sell for nice premiums.
Current Market Analysis: It has been a long time since we have seen any truly rare and amazing national bank notes from Georgia. The best notes are tied up in long-term collections and there hasn’t been a lot of great discoveries in the past decade like there have been with other states. As we have said before, condition is always important. Notes from Georgia aren’t frequently encountered in high grades. Generally speaking, first charter notes are very scarce. Also keep an eye out for notes issued before 1902 (that don’t have blue seals). Early notes from the South are just few and far between. There are still a handful of traditional rare towns from the state, but not as many as you might expect.
