FIND ALABAMA BANKNOTES FOR SALE

During the “Free Banking Era”, many banks in Alabama issued their own banknotes as a form of currency. These banknotes were often printed with the name of the issuing bank, and the denomination of the note. Sometimes there was a design or image related to the bank or the state of Alabama. Alabama banknotes are often popular collectibles today.

Alabama banknotes details

These notes were used in everyday transactions. However, because their value was dependent on the financial stability of the issuing bank, the value of the notes was not always consistent. This made it difficult for people to trust the notes, and many preferred to use gold or silver instead.

Some of the banks in Alabama that issued banknotes during this time include:
