Most 1929 National Bank Notes are moderately valuable, but the number of factors affecting prices make an online estimate very difficult. While this site ordinarily tries to provide reasonable estimates, people who work with National Bank Notes recommend that bills be evaluated in person by an expert dealer or appraiser.

Info: What is a National Bank Note?

The brown seal and the banner across the bill's top front mean that it's a special type of paper money called National Currency. These now-unusual bills were backed by bonds deposited with the Treasury by the issuing bank.

Series 1929 National Currency was printed in two forms:

* Bills issued as National Bank Notes have the words "National Bank" and the name of the issuing bank to the left of the portrait. In addition, the issuing bank's ID number is printed in heavy black type on the left and right edges of the bill.

* Bills issued as Federal Reserve Notes have the words "Federal Reserve Bank" and the name of the district city to the left of the portrait.

Bond-backed currency was discontinued during the Great Depression as part of the government's efforts to stabilize the economy. 1929 was the last series date for National Currency Notes, although these bills continued to be printed for a few more years.

What is a twenty dollar bill national reserve note 1929?

There are two different kinds of 1929 $20 bills. One type of 1929 $20 bill is the Federal Reserve Bank Note. These 1929 twenty dollar bills will generally not be worth more than a few times face value due to their large printing numbers. 1929 $20 bills that are Federal Reserve Bank Notes will say Federal Reserve Bank of Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Cleveland, Richmond, Atlanta, Chicago, St. Louis, Minneapolis, Kansas City, Dallas, or San Francisco. If one of these 1929 $20 bills has a star symbol in the serial number it will be worth much more than a few times face value. The other kind of 1929 twenty dollar bill is the 1929 national bank note. The 1929 national banknotes can be worth a few dollars over face value to several hundred dollars. The value all depends on which bank issued the notes. These 1929 $20 bills will say National Bank somewhere in the title on the left hand side of the note.

A 1929 5 dollar bill from Chase is pretty common and probably worth between $5 and $8. However the seal should be brown rather than red. Red seals were used on United States Notes, while 1929 $5 bills were issued as National Currency Notes.
