During World War II, the United States issued special emergency silver certificates specifically for troops in the North African and European theatres. These notes bore distinctive yellow Treasury seals so that they could be quickly demonetized if they were seized by enemy forces. Now, Very Fine 1934a $5 Silver Certificate North Africa Notes are available to you for purchase online from JM Bullion.
Note Highlights:
Silver certificates were first issued in the United States in 1878 as large-format notes. These were roughly 30% larger than a modern Federal Reserve Note. The large-format notes continued until 1923. Then in 1928, the Federal Reserve updated the entire paper currency system, which included brand-new, elegant designs and a smaller size. Today, silver certificates are mainly viewed as collectibles considering that the United States is no longer on the silver standard. However, the US government does still recognize them as legal tender.
On the obverse of 1934a Silver Certificate North Africa Notes you will find a portrait of Abraham Lincoln. Lincoln first appeared on the $5 note in 1914, when they were still produced in the large-size format. In addition to the distinctive yellow seal, you will also see the message Five Dollars in Silver Payable to the Bearer on Demand.
The reverse of $5 Silver Certificate North Africa Notes features the exterior of the Lincoln Memorial. This historic site was dedicated in 1922 and includes inside it an impressive statue of Lincoln seated on a throne. Also shown on the reverse are the words The United States of America, Five Dollars.
