From the first year of Federal paper money, 1861, to the
present, the fronts and backs of all classes and types
of currency, from 3 cents to 10,000 dollars are
illustrated. These are accompanied by text listing,
describing and pricing every variety of paper money ever
issued, now for the first time in as many as five states
of preservation, from Very Good to Uncirculated (more
than 10,000 prices). There are more than 900 photographs
in total.
The result is a complete pictorial, descriptive and
numismatic history of the currency of the United States.
There are also supplemental sections on Colonial and
Continental Currency (notes issued from 1680 to 1788),
the Treasury Notes of the War of 1812, which are
considered by some to be the first national currency, a
comprehensive listing by type of the issues of the
Confederate States of America, and a complete listing of
the 14,348 National Banks that existed from 1863 to 1929
when these institutions were allowed to issue currency.
Paper money collectors depend on the Friedberg Numbering
System, a uniform method of cataloguing bank notes that
is the international standard for American currency. The
numbering shorthand, along with the hundreds of
photographs, enables anyone to instantly locate a
specific banknote, and allows a dealer to advertise a
note without need of extensive description.
Those who thought that U.S. currency was only a
monotonous study in green and black, until the
recently-issued twenty dollar note, will be pleasantly
surprised. A full twenty pages of color illustrations
show American paper money as indisputable works of art
and beauty. The notes are representative of two of the
finest assemblages of American paper money extant -
those of the Aubrey and Adeline Bebee Collection at the
American Numismatic Association and the notes in the
collection at the Federal Reserve Bank in San Francisco.
Not only are many of the specimens in the finest state
of preservation possible, but some are also so extremely
rare that they may only be seen on the pages of the book
or by traveling to the respective exhibitions.
New to the seventeenth edition are expanded listings
Federal Reserve Notes, with new listings of the various
large size types types, and more comprehensive coverage
of small size star notes. The book also includes a price
appreciation chart showing the advancement in value of
U.S. currency from 1953 to the present.
A distinguished panel of acknowledged experts on paper
money has assisted the authors, enabling them to
establish accurate and up-to-the minute valuations for
all issues. |
