[QUOTE="phubanks, post: 888939, member: 23286"]This is my most prized (valuable) note. The 1907 Ten Dollar Gold Certificate [IMG]http://mindstar.com/currency/Images/1907GoldCertificateBig.jpg[/IMG][IMG]https://mindstar.com/currency/Images/1907GoldCertificateBackBig.jpg[/IMG] [FONT=Verdana,Arial][SIZE=2][COLOR=Black][FONT=Verdana,Arial]Some interesting facts ... The 1907 $10 series is about four times rarer than the similar 1922 series. Portrait is Michael Hillegas, U.S. Treasurer in the 1770's. In the 1890's Hillegas's descendents campaigned for his honoring on currency, and this bill was the result. Hillegas, was such an obscure historical figure, then as now, that he had to be identified in small print under his name "First Treasurer of the U.S.". [/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/QUOTE]
