Very LAST "Sawhorse" Note From 1917!

There was a time when "folding money" was really that—notes so large that they absolutely had to be folded to fit into your wallet! This 1917 $1 note is one of the last large-sized legal-tender bank notes ever issued. It's referred to as a "Horse Blanket" note, and when you get yours, you'll see why—it's huge! The obverse features George Washington and a vignette of Christopher Columbus sighting America. The reverse shows a "sawhorse" design so named because of the appearance of the "X." Add in the bright red seal and serial numbers and you've got a miniature work of art. This note, the final note of this design type printed between the effective end of the Morgan Silver Dollar mintage and the beginning of the Peace Dollar series, is one of the most collectible U.S. notes ever issued. Don't miss your chance to get ahold of one like the ones we have here graded in crisp Choice Uncirculated (CU) condition! Act now!
