For sale is a very cool set of the 1928, 1953 & 1963 $2 Red Seal U.S. Notes. The Red Seal Notes are called "United States Notes" because they are currency that was actually issued by the United States and not the Federal Reserve, which is technically a separate entity. So any Red Seal Note was actually issued from the U.S. fiscal budget and not on loan from the Federal Reserve. Red Seal Notes are always fairly scarce because the Treasury would destroy these notes as they made they way back. This set represents all three different designs and dates of the $2 Red Seal Notes when they began in 1928 and ended in 1963. 1953 & 1963 has the same design, and the 1928 is a bit different with the red seal on the left side of the note vs. on the right. A unique feature of the 1963 note is it is the very first year they added the motto "In God We Trust" on the reverse.
As you can see from the pics the notes are in good shape, and they would be considered average circulated grades. They all have lots of crispness still to them. On all notes the white, green, and red colors are very bold and vibrant. The notes do have folds, but they have no major rips or tears.
This is a nice vintage Note set great for any currency collection at a low price. Please email me with questions or interest. Thanks!
