Basic Design:

Rarity and Value:  This is generally considered the most common first charter note available. However, don’t get the word common confused with cheap. Some of these notes can be extremely valuable. It really just depends on the condition and bank of issue. The most generic examples might only be worth several hundred dollars. Rarer examples could be worth many times more than that. Contact us for details. Don’t forget to check the serial number. Number 1 notes always sell for nice premiums.

Current Market Analysis:  The market for Maryland notes is mostly lukewarm right now. There are a lot of great notes from Maryland. However, they rarely see the light of day. They are tied up in long term collections. You rarely see more than a couple of interesting notes sell per year. If you don’t mind settling for big city notes, then the state is fairly easy to collect thanks to the huge supply of notes from Baltimore. Some old school collectors try to avoid Baltimore notes at all cost. Most collectors like notes from smaller towns. The location of the town is also important. Western Maryland notes aren’t quite as popular as notes from inside the beltway. There are lots of high-grade notes out there as bankers tended to save lots of the notes they signed.
