For sale is a very cool set of the of 1957, 1957-A, & 1957-B $1 Silver Certificate Star Notes. Silver Certificates were a type of old currency where any person could take the Certificate into a Federal Reserve Bank and exchange the Certificate for the value of that denomination in silver. So if you have a $1 Silver Certificate, the bank would exchange it for $1 worth of silver. You could also spend it just like any other US bill. Star Notes are considered "replacement notes," so when a regular note was destroyed by the Treasury they would replace that note with a Star Note. They get their name obviously by the little star that is right next to the serial number. Star Notes are always far more rare and collectible than regular notes because they are printed in much lower quantities and have smaller serial numbers. The seal and serial numbers on the notes are blue. This set gives you the complete set of the 3 series that were printed in 1957.
As you can see from the pics the notes are in good condition, and both would be considered average circulated. They do have various basic folds, but they have no tears or major stains. The whites, blues, and green colors are nice and vibrant.
This is great set of vintage currency to add to to any currency collection at a low price. Please email me with questions or interest. Thanks!
