Five dollar bills from 1895 are traditionally quite rare. They are technically called national currency by collectors. These $5 bills from 1895 are part of a group of notes known as second charter national bank notes. Don’t get confused by the fact that 1895 and 1882 are printed on the $5 bill. 1895 is the charter date and 1882 is the series date. These bills can have either a brown seal or a blue seal. Brown seal five dollar bills tend to be more valuable. Their current value is based on the bank of issue, the serial number, and the condition. James Garfield is on the front of each note. In 1895 five dollars was equal to $158.83 today. Most people couldn’t afford to hold onto five dollars in 1895 without reason.
