1928-B Fed Reserve $5.00 Gold Note

If it's a 1928 B it's a FR-1952. It's not a gold note per se, but it has the clause written in at the top saying "redeemable in gold on demand at the United State treasury or in gold or lawful money at any Federal reserve bank". This is when money was still backed by gold, so the clause was on every bill printed. A few years later we withdrew from the gold standard and the bills started to have a new clause printed saying what it basically says currently "this note is legal tender for all debts public and private".

As far as value goes they could be worth face to hundreds to thousands of dollars depending on too many factors to even list. For example there are light seal and dark seal version, condition, serial number, star notes, ect. If you can post a picture I'm sure someone here can give you a better idea on price.

There were no $5 Gold Certificates printed. Only $10 and up...

I appreciate the feedback. I learned something new today

I admit that I'm not much into collecting paper money. But I will save unusual or older bills. Most of my bills have been stashed for many years.

My pleasure! That note, btw, is from my own collection.

If you're curious as to value, a 1928B in average condition might be worth $8-$20, while one in mint condition might be worth around $50-70. Now, if it had been a 1928C or a 1928D, you'd be talking serious money (especially the 1928D which can be worth thousands of dollars in mint condition).

Barryg, coinfrog,

Not my Lucky day for the LGS. Darn!! Very easy to tell with the collection pic`s you sent.

Hi, everyone. I am new to the forum. Came across it by chance. I was a member years ago. Anyway, does anyone have an idea what the run was for the "gold version" of the note?

And of course -
