About this lot

Estimated Value: $50-100

Denomination: Ten and Twenty Dollars

Year: 1950 and 1953

Grade: Average Circulated (estimate)

Additional Description: This collection brings together small type ten and twenty dollar notes from the 1950 and 1953 series, distinguished by their blue and green treasury seals. Issued at a time when federal currency maintained a disciplined, compact format, these notes convey a quiet authority through their balanced engraving and restrained ornamentation. The differing seal colors mark the separate legal categories of silver certificates and United States Notes, offering a subtle reminder of the monetary distinctions that persisted in the mid twentieth century.
