<p>[QUOTE="SteveInTampa, post: 1092729, member: 27107"]Great post Darryl...which reminds me of a true story concerning the reverse design on the first small-size Silver Certificates. Originally the eagle was on the left, and the pyramid was on the right. They showed the design to F.D.R. , who was a avid Stamp collector, and he suggested a design change that reversed the eagle and pyramid so that the eagle was looking AT the pyramid instead of looking off the left side of the note. He initialized the change.....and it was done.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
