C.I. Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 Found this crisp uncirculated silver certificate in a stamp album of my Grandfathers. A suprise to find the courtesy signature as well. Although not centered, it seems to be a sharp note. Are courtesy signatures common for bills of this age and for this 1935E?? Chet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonruns-migration Posted April 18, 2011 Report Share Posted April 18, 2011 I have seen these with prices of around $25. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve in Tampa Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 Nice find. Ivy Baker Priest was one of the more prolific autograph signer's of her time. This 1935E Silver Certificate was distributed from the early to late 50's, and Ivy Baker Priest was Treasurer of the United States under President Eisenhower. (1953-1961). Her autograph is not uncommon. Would you consider selling it Chet ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.I. Posted April 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 Steve Thanks for your thoughts. As a coin guy, not much up-to-date on paper money. Just by going through stuff, I have found this plus a group of uncirculated $2.00 and a well circulated $10.00 1901 Bison which had not seen the light of day since 1937 (ledger date in the book). As for selling, think I will wait a bit. I might just want to pass it on to one of my grandsons... Thanks for asking. Chet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
