    That's a very nice note.The back of it looks like the saltire of the St. Patrick's Cross flag from Ireland,the Scots flag,& the familiar battle flag of the Confederate States of America.

    Beautiful and interesting note. I wonder why the government didn't print anything about these notes being backed by silver or gold. What does the scene to the left of George Washington depict?

    To the left side of George Washington is a scene of Columbus aboard the Santa Maria with his crew as they sight land in 1492. That is all I know so far..pretty cool huh??
