Basic Design:

Rarity and Value:  John Sherman is pictured on the front of each third charter $50 bill. Right now there are only about 100 1902 $50 red seals known to exist! That means that even generic examples should sell for a few thousand dollars. If you have a note from a rare bank or rare state, that also happens to be in great condition, then the value could easily be in excess of $10,000. Please contact us for exact values. Don’t forget to check the serial number. Number 1 notes always sell for nice premiums.

Current Market Analysis:  It is really easy to like national bank notes from Minnesota. Lots of little fancifully named communities had their own national bank. Many notes are hand-signed, which is always a bonus. In the late 1800s and early 1900s there were lots of European immigrants in Minnesota. They were fond of hoarding cash. Many otherwise very rare bank notes have been saved thanks to cash hoards that were discovered after decades in hiding. The good news is that there is no one area of Minnesota that is more desirable than another. The bad news is that prices for Minnesota notes are probably down 30% off their highs. However, rare and high grade notes still don’t have very much trouble finding a qualified home quickly.
