Basic Design:

Rarity and Value:  There is no single 1929 small size note that is rare as a type. The value comes from the serial number and bank of issue. The majority of notes are worth between $40 and $400. That range can certainly go higher for truly rare examples. Notes that have the serial number 000001 are in demand. That is really the only advice we can give here. Just contact us directly with pictures of what you have and we can tell you exactly how much it is worth. It is worth noting that 1929 marks the first year that national bank notes were the same size as paper money is today. These are also the only nationals to feature a portrait of Andrew Jackson.

Current Market Analysis:  New Jersey has a large and often wealthy population. This is good news if you are looking to sell a national bank note from an old New Jersey bank. The location of the town matters a lot. There are significant premiums for notes from shore banks. Towns that are typically considered part of the New York City metro area tend to be popular. Bank notes from other places in New Jersey can struggle to find support once more than three or four are known to exist. The type of note issued is also important. First charters are traditionally fairly scarce. High grade second charter notes and 1902 red seals are certainly in demand. There is even a lot of competition for truly rare 1929 notes.
