Rarity and Value: Hugh McCulloch twenty dollar blue seals as a type are not especially rare. You could buy a very common one for less than $100. Most people collect them based on which state or bank they are from. Some can be very rare. Most trade in the $100 to $400 range. However, you definitely want to make sure you understand what you have before you sell. Rare examples can be worth thousands of dollars. Contact us for an exact value. Don’t forget to check the serial number. Number 1 notes always sell for nice premiums.
Current Market Analysis: It goes against logic, but notes from Wyoming (the least populated state in the country) are actually some of the most popular national bank notes out there. A lot of the appeal has to do with the general western nostalgia tied into every late 19th century town in Wyoming. Of course it doesn’t hurt that Wyoming also issued territorial nationals. Those are very scarce. Only around 20 are known to exist. Red seals are also few and far between, as are interesting brown backs. There are lots of blue seal notes that have the chance to be valuable. For a blue seal to be especially valuable it needs to be rare and have lots of eye appeal. Notes that have condition issues, even if they are rare, should be discounted steeply.
