Here is a nice note.

Juana de Asbaje on a Mexican Doscientos (200) Dollars bill.

 

I guess this still counts as one note...

 

Okay, here's a quiz for y'all. What's so special about this note?

Dont wanna ruin anyones fun so SPOILER ALERT for the above post....



What I found (other then the star and cool serial) is that it was the first note in the October 02 run

Very nice!

 

Wow, that was quick. Can't get anything past the folks on this board....

 

I was gonna say that!!!!!!!!! Not!!!

 

This is my most prized (valuable) note.

The 1907 Ten Dollar Gold Certificate



[FONT=Verdana,Arial][FONT=Verdana,Arial]Some interesting facts ...

The 1907 $10 series is about four times rarer than the similar 1922 series.

Portrait is Michael Hillegas, U.S. Treasurer in the 1770's.

In the 1890's Hillegas's descendents campaigned for his honoring on currency, and this bill was the result.

Hillegas, was such an obscure historical figure, then as now, that he had to be identified in small print under his name "First Treasurer of the U.S.". [/FONT][/FONT]

 

My 2nd most prized note

The 1899 $2 Silver Certificate



[FONT=Verdana,Arial][FONT=Verdana,Arial]Some facts ...

Washington is flanked by allegorical figures of Mechanics and Agriculture.
Draping on allegorical figures is overprinted in blue ink.
