Basic Design:
Rarity and Value: These aren’t traditionally thought of as especially rare bank notes. However, try to find an example in VF condition or better at will. It is tough to do. Many early banks only issued denominations of $5 and lower. Ten dollars went a long way in the 1860s and early 1870s. If you were fortunate enough to have a $10 bill then you probably spent it. That is why most examples tend to be heavily circulated. Contact us for value information. Don’t forget to check the serial number. Number 1 notes always sell for nice premiums.
Current Market Analysis: We could talk for days about the market for Florida national bank notes. We have handled lots of rarities from this state and have a great feel for values. There has always been a strong numismatic community in Florida. There are more coin shops in Florida than any other state in the country. Many of these dealers are also collectors and they can drive the prices for truly rare items. First charter notes from Florida are very scarce. The type of note is always important. However, the town and bank rarity often trumps everything else. The rarest notes from Florida are probably worth more money than equally rare notes from any other state. We would love to chat about your note from Florida if given the chance.
