Widely considered to be part of the most beautiful paper money designs in American history, the Educational Series in the Silver Certificate program included redesigns on the $1, $2, and $5 notes in 1896. Only available through 1898, the designs remain highly coveted by investors and collectors well into the 21st century. Today, 1896 $1 Silver Certificate Educational Notes are available to you online from JM Bullion.
Note Highlights:
The Silver Certificate Series introduced the Educational Series design theme on its $1, $2, and $5 notes in 1896. All three of the notes had distinctive obverse and reverse visuals, with the obverse of each note bearing a neoclassical design theme feature female allegories. Although the female allegory of History replaced Martha Washington on the obverse, the first design in the $1 series, it did not mean she was relegated off the note entirely. Martha Washington’s portrait continued on the note throughout the Educational Series release alongside her husband, President George Washington, on the reverse.
All of these 1896 $1 Silver Certificate Educational Notes are available to you in Very Fine condition with a plastic currency sleeve for protection during shipping. The term Very Fine is a broad description of the condition of paper money. This can range from indicating a note with moderate signs of circulation, numerous folds, and mild soiling to notes with only light signs of circulation and soiling with no more than 10 fold lines present.
Please note that JM Bullion selects your note at random once your payment is cleared. All of these notes fall in the acceptable range for a Very Fine grade and come from the 1896 $1 Silver Certificate release. The notes have the potential for two different signature combinations from the Register of the Treasury and Treasurer of the United States. In this case, J. Fount Tillman and Daniel Nash Morgan or Blanche Kelso Bruce and Ellis Henry Roberts. If you buy multiples in this listing, the condition and signature combinations may all match or may vary.
On the obverse of the 1896 Silver Certificate Educational Note is a depiction of the female allegory of History instructing young pupils. The reverse side of 1896 $1 Silver Certificate Educational Notes comes with side-by-side portraits of Martha Washington and George Washington.
