<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Graveymaster, post: 2278272, member: 76344&quot;]I am trying to find information online about the 2 different types of 1869 $1 Rainbow notes. </p><p><br /></p><p>To my eye, there are clearly 2 different paper types that were used to create the notes. One paper type has a blue background on the left-hand side of the note, while the other paper type does not have the blue background. See photos below of these two different types.</p><p><br /></p><p>All of my guide books and online sources declare that there was only 1 type of these notes, produced, but that&#039;s obviously not the case. The one with the blue background is much more colorful and beautiful. Since people regard this note as one of the all-time most beautiful dollars every made, I am surprised that no mention is made of the 2 types of paper. It seems like the bluer variety would command a higher value.</p><p><br /></p><p>If anyone can point me to info about the paper types used to create these varieties, I would appreciate it!!</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/yYAAAOSwEgVWSUek/s-l1600.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/bxcAAOSwPcVVli8Q/s-l1600.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
