1935-H $1 Silver Certificate

Yes I found this in my change years ago and it was as ugly and stained as it is today. It has some staple holes and when I first got it smelled of smoke and beer. I think it was once on the wall of a bar but there is little chance of proving that theory.

One thing I like about these older notes are the plate numbers. Back then they ran into the thousands since they started with 1 and kept going until 9999. At least that is my best guess since they did not start over when a new series was approved.

This note just turned 50 years old and while it has been out of circulation for the last 10 years it still held up well. As long as I keep it in a cool, dry, and dark place I think it will be fine for another 50 years. Although maybe placing it in an archival safe sleeve would be better.
