[QUOTE="RickieB, post: 1608198, member: 2486"]United States Notes (Red Seals) also known as Legal Tender Notes have been around longer than most others... May 3, 1878 an Act of Congress was put into place requiring $346-$347 million be maintained to support the issue. The Small Size issues have been in the following denominations; $1, $2, $5 and $100.
