For much of the 19th century and the earlier part of the 20th, the American economy was built around the idea of “hard money,” money whose value was based directly on stockpiles of gold and silver bullion. Later in the century, after the Civil War, the government began to issue gold certificate notes as a way of making transactions easier, a kind of currency that has become known among collectors ever since for its rarity and beauty. The Series of 1882 was the first series payable to the bearer, transferable and redeemable by anyone for its equivalent in gold, like this 1882 $20 Gold Certificate Note listing, now available from JM Bullion.
Note Highlights:
Paper Money Guaranty is a third-party service relied upon in the US and worldwide for respected paper money certification, using an internationally-recognized grading scale that tracks the effects of a note’s circulated or uncirculated condition. PMG’s accuracy and reliability have produced high levels of confidence from collectors and investors, and the company provides the grading of this note, part of the extraordinary 1882 series of gold certificate notes.
This 1882 $20 Gold Certificate Note ships in an individual currency sleeve with a label that identifies its PMG Grade of Very Good (10). This means a note that has seen considerable circulation and can have a number of minor problems, but is a whole and solid note that preserves the full design. Each note ships fully insured by the team at JM Bullion.
The note’s obverse side features a portrait of President James Garfield, whose brief tenure had ended in his tragic and untimely passing just the year before it was issued. The serial number appears in both the lower left and upper right fields — the latter directly over Garfield’s portrait — with the US Treasury stamp appearing in the bottom central field. The reverse side features orange ink in its design elements and a bald eagle at the center, surrounded by verifications of the note’s face value and country of origin.
