1896 $1 Silver Certificate S/N 438462
CGA Choice Uncirculated 64
Fr. 224. Tillman/Morgan. S/N 438462. Rated number seven in the Bowers/Sundman book "100 Greatest American Currency Notes", the 1896 Education $1 is always a crown pleaser in numismatic circles! Along with its counterparts the $2 and $5 of the same series, the "Educational" issues are considered by most to be the most beautiful of American produced currency. The $1 depicts "History Instructing Youth", with the goddes and her pupil positioned approximately where the Robert E. Lee mansion is, across the Potomac from Washington, DC. A true masterpiece!
