FREE: $5.00 Bill from the Presidents Bank in Washington D.C.

if I had an e-mail address I would send you a link where it states that there a know estimated original mintage of this particular bill of less the 20. And an auction sale price of 2,600.00 dollars for a single original. Evidentally the bank received a sample minting of 20 bills 100.00 worth. Then on delivery of the following shipment of 7500 new ordered bills the stagecoach bringing them was robbed and the thieves tried blowing up the safe aboard and burned all bills inside. Thus the high sale price and the copies being made at the time. A second order was never placed until the following year. If you notice there is a hand written bill number in the top right hand side of the bill. Because of the history of the bill an original commands a very high price. I would be more than willing to share the lint with you. Just my 2 cents

By no means am I trying to imply this item is worth thousands let alone hundreds. It is a period copy made only because there are so few of these in circulation. If you would like an inexspensive way to add a note to your collection this is the way to go. It is the same as collector's who collect 100 mill gold and silver bars and rounds. They are collected for their beauty not their worth.
