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:  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.
