1929 Illinois nationals

coinkatcoinkat Posts: 24,437 ✭✭✭✭✭

I have done one preliminary research in connection with afew notes as listed below:

1929 Greenup type I $20 charter 8115
1929 Batavia type I $10 charter 4646
1929 Centralia type I $20 charter 11923

These seem to be somewhat uncommon but have marginal interest. I would think that the Batavia might be the one with the greatest demand given it’s geographic location. I am looking for more than Heritage auction records. While those records are helpful, it seems there have been a small number of notes handled/sold. Does anyone have an estimate on the surviving number of these? Thanks in advance for anything shared.

    It is almost impossible to estimate the surviving numbers. What you see in auctions are just the ones being
    sold but there are countless collectors who don’t sell and don’t disclose what they have in their collection.

    There are 44 smalls in the census on 11923, mostly type I's so there are plenty around for collectors. Centralia is borderline in the StL metro area I collect seriously, and I got this nice AU ten when a long-time collection was broken up locally a couple of years ago for less than $200. I see the other two banks offered from time to time and suspect they're in the same category.

    Always interested in St Louis MO & IL metro area and Evansville IN national bank notes and Vatican/papal states coins and medals!
