This one is from the BEP and features the USS. Edison launched in 1962 To carry the Polaris missile, this particular theme is on the Series 681 Fractional series i have a picture of the note itself below.
Rusty , I have the same design from one I bought from you but it's the 10 center , one of my faves from the Nam era . Till I looked I thought mine was a series 661 but it's a 681 like yours .
We've been posting Souvenir Cards for a few years in this thread. A lot of CT members have added to it. Please post your Souvenir Cards there, too.

I'm not able to open it . Which one has the Green Beret on one side and I think a tank on the other ? One I would like to get one day .
I love that series 681 note...one of my favorites MPCs of all time. I just love the picture of the astronaut on the back. I don't know if they officially intended it to look like anyone, but the image appears to be pretty clearly adapted from Ed White's Gemini-IV spacewalk.
Well i just got another scanner and have several souvenir cards to post, here,s the Green Beret Series 681 $10 and the the note itself
Say, MPCUSA, if you haven't seen it already, I did some extensive research for a thread last year about MPC designs on engraved souvenir cards: https://www.cointalk.com/threads/engraved-mpc-designs-on-souvenir-cards.221756/ I think I captured all the intaglio matches. And as Chris mentioned, there's already a great thread devoted to souvenir cards with literally hundreds of images. There aren't a lot of private issue cards (the ANA cards above qualify) so we'd love to have some posted there.
