U.S. Silver Certificates Educational Silver Certificates

I thought this was very interesting when I was watching t.v. last night so I decided to Google it. I came up with a excellent link which show part of our history here in the U.S. it explains what made this country great, and of coarse it was banned, I wonder what the motives for that were. It is my believe this is something they do not want people to see, they basically want us to forget about it. Check them out and tell me what you think. Maybe it might be time for some old bills to come back into circulation.

Yep, saw those on Pawn Stars last night. Very interesting indeed. Especially the "Electricity as the Dominant Force in the World". I don't think that guy should have sold them.

Need to ask my Dad if he has any of these.

One more note, if anyone has any of these notes, hold on to them they are worth thousands.

I have a couple of "red" seal and a "brown" seal silver certificates from the 10's and 20's. Nothing at all like what the guy had on pawn stars. I'd love to got hold of those back in the 60-70's.

My kids will probably inherit my moohla collection.

The "new" $2 bill that came out not too many years ago tried to imitate that artwork with the founder's meeting on the back.

The bill is a failure.

My father just showed me some silver certificates he has the other day. I wonder what their worth is today? Interesting that this came up right after he showed me them. I never knew he had any of them until now.

I remember those $2.00 bills, I wanted to look at the back of it and found this great site, here's the link : currency.ha.com...
