Yes it is and I love it. That’s why I keep doing it. It’s the perfect job.

see what I mean? ALWAYS learning on here! look at that serial number on that $20.00 Pensacola note. I have never seen one like that. THANK you for posting. I have collected currency and coins since late 60's still learning here.

 

Glad you're still with us, talking currency. Your collection is amazing, glad you're still with us, to share.

 

thanks friend. I am glad to still be here too trust me.

 

I only have one. Found it in circulation.

 

John Sherman also served as McKinley's Secretary of State during his first term. I'm reading a Bio on McKinley which I am enjoying thoroughly and recommend if you like historic Bio's "President McKinley" by Robert Merry. The book also talks about the late 19th century fight over the Gold and Silver standard and "bi-metalism". Both the 1896 and 1900 presidential elections between McKinley and William Jennings Bryan were decided, in large part, due to the two precious metals. I too just retired and am enjoying reading and tending to my collection. God bless, sir, "don't get yer dobber down".

 

That is a Type II 1929 National with the serial number and Charter number printed together.

 

Can you imagine the argument of silver vs. gold or both? Not just create money out of thin air like today?

 

Where is your Confederates Currency or did they take that away too. Just a pun included in my opinion Southerman, no offense intended. Great post, thank you

 

Hey @clayirving , your $10 and $20 are FRBNs, and not Nationals…

 

Great to know you're doing well and let collecting help you along the healing path.

 

Advocates of the gold standard then would say that money based on silver was today's equivalent of "creating money out of thin air" since there was relatively so much more silver than gold.

 

Some of my large-size Nationals are framed up behind museum glass with a photo of the bank they represent in the time period they were being circulated.

 

This one was left to me by a deceased relative.

 

A family heirloom, fantastic.
But, it’s not a National. It’s a FRBN.
