Basic Design:

Rarity and Value:  These are very popular bank notes. They are nicknamed lazy deuces. Examples in heavily circulated condition typically sell for $1,000 as the bottom dollar price. There is plenty of room for that price to be higher. The exact value is really just based on the bank of issue. The state of issue can also be very important. Many notes from southern and western states are especially rare. Contact us for details. Don’t forget to check the serial number. Number 1 notes always sell for nice premiums.

Current Market Analysis:  The market for better North Carolina national bank notes has traditionally been strong. It was stronger five years ago compared to today. However, it is a better state than most in terms of demand and number of collectors. North Carolina already had a robust economy during the first charter period (prior to 1882) so you can find early notes from major cities like Charlotte, Winston Salem, Raleigh, etc. The most prized notes from the state are going to be from the tiny communities that issued during the early 20th century. A couple of towns that come to mind are Hamlet and Murphy. Notes with color like 1882 brown backs and 1902 red seals are not necessarily rare, but they are much more popular than blue seals or small size notes.
