Message:: [QUOTE="bzcollektor, post: 150993, member: 3241"]Thanks for that info jakeen!!!!   I thought they were all released in the 1933 timefrime, hence the emergency nature of their printing. I kinda figured that the gold clause in the 1928 FRN`s (as per my previous post) had something to do with the necessity for the printing of the FRBN`s.   I did not know that many were not released until 1944. I still believe they are as rare as their low printing numbers indicate. Whether it was 1933 (when the whole country had no money) or 1944 (in the midst of WWII and rationing), it is my opinion that these were not saved in massive quantities.   I will  say that you do not find many G-VG rags for the FRBN`s. Mosts notes you see are in the F-XF catagory, which leads credence to the observance that many were saved, and most were not circulated to the point of being worn out in everyday commerce.   I will also say, despite the low book value and prices for the FRBN`s, they are vastly underated and underpriced. And not so easy to find even at the cheap for F-VF $20`s. Try and find quality circulated FRBN`s. I`ll steal all I can  at today`s prices. Trying for the $100`s. Nice $20`s when I can. The $5 , $10, and $50`s are in my radar.....................[/QUOTE]
