<p>[QUOTE=&quot;connor1, post: 811945, member: 19521&quot;]I just bought this and am still waiting for delivery of this Engraving of President Woodrow Wilson similar to the $100,000 Gold Certificate used between Federal Reserve Banks,don&#039;t know much more then the BEP printed it.</p><p>1914, Woodrow Wilson, Large Vignette by G.F.C. Smillie, Choice Near Mint. </p><p>5.5&quot; x 4&quot; uncolored engraved image is mounted to 10.75&quot; x 8&quot; card stock. Exquisitely detailed print by Smillie was completed during Wilson&#039;s term of office, and has the artist&#039;s signature and year of printing worked into the lower edge of Wilson&#039;s coat pocket. Near flawless engraving; perfect for matting, framing and display. Portrait is similar to the one that was used on the 1934 $100,000 Federal Reserve Note.</p><p><img src="http://i741.photobucket.com/albums/xx59/connor1_photos/vignettes/WoodrowWilson.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>$100,000 Gold Certificate</p><p><img src="http://i741.photobucket.com/albums/xx59/connor1_photos/currency/100000-GoldCertificate.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>This note is not mine Krispy,I put it up as a comparison to the vignett of Wilson that I do own,these&nbsp; notes were never issued to the public,I am showing the image from Bing.com for just a comparison ,you must be joking !</p><p>Appreciate it if anyone knows more about this engraving ,In the Engravers Line by Gene Hessler he notes that G.F.C. Smillie used it on the $100,000 Gold Certificate.Looks very similar from the neck up,perhaps the vignette die was re-worked from neck up for the Note.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
