Rarity and Value: Your typical 1902 $100 blue seal is from a large bank, usually in a larger city. You can buy a generic example for between $450 and $900. Some notes can be worth a lot more than that. However, they would have to be from a rare bank or be in especially high grade. Please contact us for exact value information. Don’t forget to check the serial number. Number 1 notes always sell for nice premiums.
Current Market Analysis: In the early part of the 21st century notes from California were especially hot. The reality is that most collectors who follow the state have been collecting for decades. So you have to have something really special to achieve the prices we were seeing ten years ago, because most collectors have very few holes in their collections left to fill. There were lots of blue seal banks in California that seem rare, but they don’t always bring values commiserate with their perceived rarity. The location of the bank also matters. Traditionally notes from the bay area and San Diego have been especially popular. It should go without saying that national gold bank notes from California have a special place in most currency collections.
