Rarity and Value: Most of these notes are fairly scarce. We generally see them sell for between $300 and $1,200. There is room for that price range to go higher. However, more valuable notes have to be in excellent condition or they need to be from rare banks. Please contact us if you would like to know the exact value of your note. Don’t forget to check the serial number. Number 1 notes always sell for nice premiums.
Current Market Analysis: We personally love notes from Mississippi. However, most other collectors don’t feel the same way. In the 1980s Mississippi notes were highly prized for their rarity. Today there just isn’t a lot of demand, despite still being rare. Part of the problem is condition. Mississippi has always been a poor state. Paper money changed hands frequently and today it is usually found in very heavily circulated condition. Many notes are stamp signed, which is also less desirable. One of the last great anticipated discoveries is that of a first charter from Mississippi. None are currently known to exist. Brown backs and red seals (in high grades) are also rare. The same thing goes for #1 notes. There are not many to go around.
