Rarity and Value:  Most 1902 $50 blue seals you see are from fairly large banks and bigger cities. The most generic ones are worth between $400 and $800. There is certainly room for that value to increase. Notes from rare banks or notes that are in especially high grade can be worth more than $1,000. Sometimes the bank doesn’t even have to be rare, the type could be rare for the state. Please contact us for pricing details. Don’t forget to check the serial number. Number 1 notes always sell for nice premiums.

Current Market Analysis:  The market for South Dakota national bank notes can be difficult to understand. We have bought things for $5,000 that we were forced to sell for $2,500. We have also bought things for $2,500 that we expected to be $3,000 that ended up selling for $5,000. There are lots of rare bank notes from South Dakota. However, rarity isn’t always enough to make something valuable. The location of the issuing bank is also very important. Early notes like brown backs and red seals can be worth lots of money. We also need to mention that first charter notes and brown backs that were issued during South Dakota’s territorial period are always more valuable than other notes issued after it became a state.
