Among the denominations of $5, $10, $20, $50, and $100, the $5, $10, and $50 notes had presidential portraits you can still find on modern US bills.

Please keep in mind that there are factors JM Bullion cannot guarantee with your $50 Federal Reserve Note. For example, 1914 Series Federal Reserve Notes were initially printed with red ink on the serial numbers and the US Treasury seal. Shortly after, blue ink was used and is far more common among surviving specimens. In addition, the notes are printed with a Federal Reserve Bank branch seal on the obverse. These seals can vary and represent the branch bank that released the bills into circulation. Examples include the 8-H seal representing the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis.

On the obverse of 1914 $50 Federal Reserve Notes is an effigy of President Ulysses S. Grant. The 18^th President of the United States, this portrait of Grant is effectively the same as the one still in use on the modern note.

The reverse side of the 1914 $50 Federal Reserve Note comes with a design that was halted in 1928. The image shows a female allegory representing Panama. She is positioned at the isthmus of Panama in this artistic image as a merchant ship approaches from one side and a battleship from the other.
