Collection
The unique thing about currency is how much harder it can
be to collect than coins. Since coins are made from metal
they can withstand the test of time much more so than the
delicate paper that notes are printed on. So to be able to find
a note from the early 1900’s in Fine or Very Fine condition
is truly a well deserved addition to anyones collection!

1923 $1 Silver Certificate, VF
