Hi All, I just came across this web site that I have never seen before. It has some real nice photos of currency from 1776 on. Hope someone will enjoy it as much as I did. http://www.frbsf.org/currency/bills.html catman
Great site, Catman. It should also be posted in the Information/Helpful Links section. I love the extra links to see the historical significance and background. What a great site!
Those are great ,,I especially like the warning on the delaware 5 schilling note, (to counterfeit is death) do you think they meant it ? I do!!!
No I don't think they did. Several issues of notes back then bore that warning, yet counterfeiting was widespread, counterfeiteirs were captured, but no one was ever put to death for counterfeiting.
