Rarity and Value:  If you have one of these then please be sure to check the back of it. If the back says “Fifty Dollars” in large type then you have a very rare find. If the back says “1882-1908” then you have the more common variety. The good news that even the common variety is still relatively scarce and should be worth at least a couple thousand dollars, or more. Please contact us for details. Don’t forget to check the serial number. Number 1 notes always sell for nice premiums.

Current Market Analysis:  Most notes from Alabama are heavily circulated. This state has always been underprivileged economically, so people couldn’t afford to hold currency just for the sake of saving it. Any note in XF condition or better should sell for a nice premium. First charter notes and denominations higher than $20 are scarce. Most towns in Alabama are small. You really can’t say that notes from small towns are rare, but if you get the right mix of grade and rarity, then you have a great find. Notes from Alabama have been more popular in years past, but there is still a chance for the good stuff to sell for thousands of dollars.
