Back on page 23 of this thread I posted some images from an Engraver's Union convention booklet. These usually featured some impressive souvenir...
WHOA, slow down podnah! I enjoy looking at these but let's not drown the thread in unnecessary text. It's easy enough to scroll through eBay, I'd...
I think the actual point of the thread was to post non-federal fractionals. There are lots of small change obsolete notes out there, Depression...
Correct -- and it often approaches $100, above the actual value of the shares. I have a certificate of Disney stock still in my name that I've...
How about some fractional Depression scrip, does that count? These were issued during the March 1933 banking crisis and also exist in 50¢ and $1...

The news is out! The BEP just posted details on their website about the 2015 intaglio print program with images of the cards and the large...
:happy:
Whoa! You just shifted my paradigm. I was under the mistaken impression that the gold-plated set was not issued with engravings, just the medals...
Agreed!
Great! I'm still trying to get clear images of those four presidents - Lincoln, Polk, Tyler and Andrew Johnson. Specifically the engraved...
Star note errors always amaze me. If it had been spotted, would the BEP replace an error star note with another star?
