MPC Series 692 20 dollar note

Hi All,Have been slowly collecting my sets of MPC,s. This is my latest one, series 692, 20 dollar note. Was surprised to see an Indian Chief on the front. Hoover Dam on back. Also a pic of my MPC Album. I find these to be an interesting part of history, and I like the artistry and images. A nice break from my coins and medals. I like to mix it up, so I don't get burnt out on any particular numismatic genre. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_payment_certificate

I like them a lot.

 

Good stuff, I haven't noticed a lot of others here collecting these? Only a few of us it seems?

 

Ya. Too bad prices didn't reflect the lack of popularity here on CoinTalk. I haven't added to my collection in a while...

 

I agree, been chipping away at it slowly. Getting average condition specimens. Seems there is high demand out there for sure, and graded ones are very pricey.

 

It is the Roosevelt Dam, not Hoover Dam. If you have not done so already, get Schwan's MPC catalog.

The Indian is Chief Ouray.

 

Thanks lettow, good info. I,ll def. check it out

 

Nice pick up Here,s one that i recently picked up one of only 2 at PMG

 

Thought you might like to see a close-up of the original engraving of Chief Ouray, the portrait used on your MPC.
