Some great notes everyone.. I totally forgot about the Red Seal Fractionals... Connor1 you have some nice ones too! Here are my Red Seal Fractionals as well..
I've been kind of busy lately and just saw this now. AMAZING Notes everyone! I love the red seals. I don't know why, but I would guess a large part of it is the contrast with the greenish white paper. Until 2/2008 I had never seen a note that was not a green seal...Then I found my late father's stash and sudddenly I had blue seals, (including a large size!) a yellow seal, and a red seal! I have really come to love them someday and am slowly working on building a complete set, or at least as complete as I will be able to get- I know the $100s are going to be tough to afford, and the $1 Star is something I will NEVER have, too expensive for me to be able to afford it, probably even as a rag, but I think I can do all the $2s and $5s! Here's the $1 that was my first and is really the note that got me into collecting currency! Here's an example of one of the $2s. I have a handfull of these now, about half of the non-star notes. Here's my 5*. This was, I think, the first note I purchased online...I forget off the top of my head, but I do have the info in Excel! My only Fractional to date (I hope to add some more someday!) is also a red seal This is also my only Federal currency from the 1800s...I do have an Obsolete and a Confederate too but that's a different category
