The one with the Treasury on the back with the perspective view up 14th Street. Across from the Occidental Grill, you can stand on the corner of Penn and 14th. It takes a little maneuvering but if you bring your camera with you can take a picture up 14th street that will be an exact replica of the scene on the back of the $10.00 bill.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It&#039;s not on any tour and I don&#039;t know if anyone even knows about it or anyone cares. I was eating my lunch one day and walking up 14th when I had a deja vu moment (I&#039;ve seen this someplace before). Sure enough, I pulled out a 10 and there it was.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Not so much fun now that they changed the money ...but you old timers might get a kick out of it.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Riggs (a now defunct bank) used to have a slogan &quot;We&#039;re on the money&quot; sure enough the Riggs bank is in the scene on the back of the old 10s.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
