Stamps used on paper money

I ran across this article of stamps used on paper money and thought that some of the collectors on this forum may find this article interesting. The article covers World Notes as well as US Notes. If anyone has some stamped notes post a picture. http://www.thecurrencycollector.com/pdfs/The_Significance_of_Stamps_Used_on_Bank_Notes.pdf

Thanks for posting a picture of a note with a stamp. I also have a 1976 2 dollar bill with the stamp posted on the reverse of the note. I purchased my bill in Philadelphia back in 1976. Thank for sharing Mag.

Here's a picture of a Postage Currency Note (First Issue) KL 3215. The note pictured here is a straight edge note. Other notes of the same issue had perforated edges. The notes where printed by American Bank Note Company. The note pictured also has the ABNC monogram on the reverse lower right. The initial printing of the First Issue was released through Army paymasters on August 1, 1862. Picked this note up in Silver City, Nevada.
