Cool story. The vignette on the back looks familiar. Is it an ABNCo. bill? http://www.usatoday.com/story/money...es+(Money+-+Top+Stories)&utm_content=My+Yahoo
"Landing of the Pilgrims" was engraved by Charles Burt. It first appeared on the back of the $1 First Charter Nationals, which were originally printed by ABNCo. But the plates were turned over to the BEP, which used a cropped version later on the $5 Nationals. Love the Alaska note -- bet it brings some big bids.
