Found one more in the hologram series. If the engraved eagle looks familiar, that's because it appears on the 1862 $100 Legal Tender Note, back...
Just picked up another one of these for under $5. This eagle vignette, printed by American Bank Note Co. shows up on a lot of checks from this...
Okay, time to jump start this thread with some new material. Not much has been posted on American Bank Note cards, of which there are many. I...

I've got a 1987 and 1990 I'd let go for a good bit less. No eBay bucks, tho. These really are beautiful portfolios.

The newer Bureau cards (BEP), with specimen imprints, you're doing well if you can get those for $20 ea. They typically retail around $30. The...

I totally agree! That's one I *don't* have -- but it's on my list now: B277. There are several from the mid-2000's I need to pick up, but you...
