    I agree, very beautiful. I'm new to paper money, what makes the $20 a mule, the upper series of arc?

    "A small-size mule is a note that has a micro plate number on one side and a macro plate number on the other. Micro numbers measure 0.6mm and macros measure 1mm high.

    During the transition to all macro plates, both micro and macro plates were in use. Usually these different plates were side-by-side on the same press. This occurred because the BEP had a standard economic policy of using up obsolete plates rather than scrapping them. Whenever micro faces are paired with macro backs, or macro faces are paired with micro backs, a mule is produced."

    this note has the micro plate number on the back the macro on the the front. i dont have a detailed scan of the back at this moment but as soon as i have it in hand i will show the details. on this note the serial range is also right in line for the mules of this series.
