<p>[QUOTE="Bucephalus, post: 2150536, member: 73862"]It's actually <b>Series 1963A</b>. It does not mean that's when it was printed. They don't update the series' date on paper notes as they do with coins. With coins, the date is also not when they were made, but dated for the year they are intended for release/circulation. Hence, late 1941 the US Mint made the nickles 1942P and D, but a few months later we were at war and nickle was much needed for the war effort. So they raided the treasury, looted the silver and used 35% silver for the rest of the year.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
