Description: Over 12,000 banks issued national currency. However, only about 400 banks printed series of 1902 red seal fifty dollar notes. In fact, right now there are only about 100 of these known to exist. Of course more will be found as time passes, but right now 1902 $50 red seals are rare. You have to remember that these were only printed between 1902 and 1908, and these didn’t become collectible until the 1940s, and even then they were only worth a few dollars over face value. The ones that have survived were kept as souvenirs or simply saved by accident. Needless to say, today they are worth thousands.
The front has a portrait of John Sherman. The serial numbers are printed in a blue ink and the rest of the overprints, including the charter number and seal, are in red ink. Please contact us if you have a 1902 $50 red seal national bank note. |
