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 Ulysses Grant.

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.
