Rarity and Value: William McKinley is shown on the front of all 1902 $10 bills. This is the single most common type of large-size national bank note. Some of these are only worth around $50. Some can be worth $500, and others still can sell for more than $5,000. It is all about the bank rarity. Sadly, there is no place online to see if you have a rare bank. The best advice is to just check with an expert. We happily answer questions about all national bank notes. Contact us to get the value of yours. Don’t forget to check the serial number. Number 1 notes always sell for nice premiums.
Current Market Analysis: National bank notes from The District of Columbia can either be issued from Georgetown or Washington. Only two banks were in Georgetown. A total of 27 different banks issued nationals in DC. At least three of the banks have yet to have any notes discovered that they issued. Notes from both cities are plentiful; however, that does not mean that they are always cheap. The bank of issue and the type of national bank note issued are both extremely important. You want to look for traditional rarities like high denominations and rare types. Don’t discount the signor either. You never know what important political figure might have signed nationals from that part of the country.
