The Short Snorter has such a story to tell...</p><p><br /></p><p>- Obvious economical restrictions of wanting to purchase such pieces, Demand is high and Supply is low...</p><p><br /></p><p>As such my Type Set is built around the notion of &#039;Common denominations used in everyday commerce and the building of America.&#039;</p><p><br /></p><p>*Holding place for a bank card prompting users about the change from large size currency to small size currency on July 1st 1929.*</p><p><br /></p><p>Gold Certificates</p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/LQnFQmI.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/JBXTIzu.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>*Holding for $50 &amp; $100 Gold Certificates*</p><p><br /></p><p>*Holding for Type 1 National Bank Notes*</p><p>*Holding for Type 2 National Bank Notes*</p><p><br /></p><p>Federal Reserve Banknotes</p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/hRFwqoA.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Hawaii Overprint Notes</p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/1Ry4UDg.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/0Z04ShG.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>North Africa Notes</p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/6quBixI.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Silver Certificates</p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/70bf0ig.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>United States Notes</p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/UnVKElO.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Federal Reserve Notes (Small Portrait)</p><p>($1 is a Series 1963, $2 is a Series 1976)</p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/T4LpDWN.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Federal Reserve Notes (Large Portrait Redesign)</p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/ADAwS8k.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Federal Reserve Notes (Color Currency *Star Notes Picked from Circulation*)</p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/YdcHhvm.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>I am hoping to complete the set by early 2022...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
