1933 $10 Silver Certificate Value: Price Chart by Series

The first small-size $10 Silver Certificate: a blue seal and serial numbers; the front design style is close to the 1928 $1 Silver Certificate, but the wording differs. Very few were issued, and it was replaced by the 1934 series before wide circulation.

• Series 1933 — Julian (Treasurer) and Woodin (Secretary), blue seal

Carries over the older obligation-text wording used on the 1928 $1 Silver Certificate ("X silver dollar(s) payable to the bearer on demand" style; no verbatim quote was found in the $10-specific article, so this is inferred to apply to this period based on the general description in the Silver Certificate overview article)

• Blue seal and serial numbers
• Front design style is close to the 1928 $1 Silver Certificate, but the wording differs

Difference from the 1934 series: the 1934 series rewrote the obligation text and was redesigned following the 1934 Silver Purchase Act (a blue numeral 10 on the left, seal overlapping the gray TEN).

Greysheet (Greensheet & Friedberg CPG) retail value ranges, updated September 25, 2026, from a worn circulated note to a top-grade crisp uncirculated one:

• 1933 (Fr. 1700): $2,000–$95,000

The low end is a folded, circulated note; the high end is a gem uncirculated note, usually one certified by PMG or PCGS Banknote. Star notes (a star next to the serial number) replaced misprinted sheets and usually sell above the regular note. Condition moves the price more than anything else: a note that has been folded even once is no longer uncirculated. Fancy serial numbers can add more; check yours with the serial number checker.
