Rarity and Value:  This denomination was only printed from 1875 until 1878. That is a very short period of time. It is no surprise that these are usually at least scarce and sometimes quite rare. One dollar was not a tremendous amount of money, so it was possible for these to be saved as curiosity items. Prices start at around $400 and go up quickly from there. We would be happy to tell you what yours is worth. Just email us. Don’t forget to check the serial number. Number 1 notes always sell for nice premiums.

Current Market Analysis:  The market for national bank notes from Rhode Island is about the same as every other New England state. There really aren’t any rare towns. However, there are rare banks and rare types are always in demand. First charter $2s, $20s, $50s, and $100s always sell for good money. Most collectors also like high grade notes no matter the type. You are going to see lots of notes from Providence. In fact only twenty-two other towns even had a national bank that issued currency. Rhode Island also has a rich history of banking during the obsolete era. Many people who collect national bank notes also like obsolete bank notes and colonial currency. Rhode Island definitely has a rich numismatic history.
