Rarity and Value:  It is easy to talk about these. All you need to know is that they rare and valuable. Very few banks in the 1860s and 1870s had the need for such a high denomination. Furthermore, very few people in that same time period had a net worth of $50, much less the ability to ever own a $50 bill for more than a few hours. Only about 40 notes like this are known to exist today (and that is across all banks in the country). Values start at $10,000 and go up from there. Contact us if you need an exact price. 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.
