Basic Design:
Rarity and Value: These are very popular bank notes. They are nicknamed lazy deuces. Examples in heavily circulated condition typically sell for $1,000 as the bottom dollar price. There is plenty of room for that price to be higher. The exact value is really just based on the bank of issue. The state of issue can also be very important. Many notes from southern and western states are especially rare. Contact us for details. Don’t forget to check the serial number. Number 1 notes always sell for nice premiums.
Current Market Analysis: It is difficult to describe the Wisconsin national bank note market in one word. A huge collection was sold in 2008 and prices were generally thought to be strong then, but the market is likely off of those highs. Different parts of the state and different towns are always hot and other areas just don’t seem to have much of a following. We know collectors who only like Wisconsin river towns, or only like towns on the Great Lakes. We don’t generally think of Wisconsin as an especially developed state. However, it had 240 national banks in 131 different towns. There are dozens of ways to collect. It all depends on what you like. The notes that sell the best usually have an X factor. That X factor could be the type of note, the serial number, or the signor.
