Basic Design:

Rarity and Value:  This is generally considered the most common first charter note available. However, don’t get the word common confused with cheap. Some of these notes can be extremely valuable. It really just depends on the condition and bank of issue. The most generic examples might only be worth several hundred dollars. Rarer examples could be worth many times more than that. 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 North Dakota national bank notes has been better in the past than it is now. A huge collection was sold in January 2013 and there were lots of bargains to be had. The state has always benefitted from having a few currency dealers keeping their main residence in North Dakota. Most cities in North Dakota have a very small population today and had a small population when national bank notes were originally issued. The reality is that many notes from North Dakota are quite rare. A general rule is that notes that were issued while North Dakota was still a territory are more valuable than later printings. The great news is that there are still lots of discoveries waiting to be found.
