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 Abraham Lincoln.

Current Market Analysis:  National bank notes from The District of Columbia can either be issued from Georgetown or Washington. Only two banks were in Georgetown. A total of 27 different banks issued nationals in DC. At least three of the banks have yet to have any notes discovered that they issued. Notes from both cities are plentiful; however, that does not mean that they are always cheap. The bank of issue and the type of national bank note issued are both extremely important. You want to look for traditional rarities like high denominations and rare types. Don’t discount the signor either. You never know what important political figure might have signed nationals from that part of the country.
