Basic Design:

Rarity and Value:  There are two types of 1882 blue seal national bank notes. The back either says five dollars or it says 1882 – 1908. The value of these notes is really just based on the condition and bank of issue. Some can be worth as little as a few hundred dollars. The rarest notes usually top out at a couple thousand dollars. Please contact us for details. Don’t forget to check the serial number. Number 1 notes always sell for nice premiums.

Current Market Analysis:  The most expensive notes from Nebraska were issued while Nebraska was still a territory. Only about ten notes like that are known to exist and they are all in heavily circulated condition. Pricing the other 99.9% of Nebraska notes can be difficult. Lots of notes exist that are not on the collector census. It seems like every five years Nebraska is red hot and then ice cold. Right now we are moving from hot to cold. First charter notes are of course very rare. There is actually a fairly large selection of nice brown backs, red seals, and blue seals. As always, notes from small towns will be worth more than notes from larger cities like Omaha and Lincoln.
