Rarity and Value: This is the highest denomination issued for the brown back series. These were printed in limited quantities. Many banks didn’t have the demand for such a high denomination from the general public. Today a very generic one of these should be worth around $3,500. That price can definitely get higher based on the condition and bank of issue. Please contact us for details. Don’t forget to check the serial number. Number 1 notes always sell for nice premiums.
Current Market Analysis: There is a very strong demand for territorial notes from Montana. Those can be first charters and some brown back notes. Montana became a state in 1889. Most territorials have long been discovered and are tightly held with collectors. Third charter notes (red seal and blue seals) seem to be out of favor with collectors right now. We really can’t explain why, but prices were definitely stronger for these notes ten years ago. In years past there has been lots of outside interest in Montana notes from collectors who hunted, skied, or otherwise vacationed there. Most serious collectors never lived in the state. You are going to see lots of notes from larger cities like Billings and Kalispell. Other notes should be assumed to be scarce until proven otherwise.
