Rarity and Value: Most 1902 $50 blue seals you see are from fairly large banks and bigger cities. The most generic ones are worth between $400 and $800. There is certainly room for that value to increase. Notes from rare banks or notes that are in especially high grade can be worth more than $1,000. Sometimes the bank doesn’t even have to be rare, the type could be rare for the state. Please contact us for pricing details. Don’t forget to check the serial number. Number 1 notes always sell for nice premiums.
Current Market Analysis: There are dozens, if not hundreds of truly rare and amazing notes from Kansas that should be worth two or three times more than what they sell for in today’s market. The problem is that Kansas had lots of national banks and it just doesn’t have a very strong collector base today. For example, a three known blue seal from Florida might sell for $10,000. A note with the exact same rarity from a Kansas bank might not even sell for $1,500. It is just one of those simple supply and demand things. The quantity of great material far outweighs the number of people looking to buy it. Let’s hope that prices will increase in the future as buyers start to make bargain purchases and accidently turn into long-term collectors.
