In keeping with my moniker, here is one of my favorites: a $20 small size national from the Yakima First National Bank, charter 3355. It was my first note from my old hometown.

GregAlex, I have always ben somewhat envious of those who reside in states that had banks which issued obsolete notes. None exist for Washington State as best as I can tell.

Quote: Great! Series 1891 $20 silver certificate. Is that Parker Burke, or Teehee Burke? Teehee/Burke signatures. Much scarcer of the blue seal and "double X" overprint variety. Currently 150ish Fr. 322 examples are known in Track & Price compared to over 300 Fr. 321 notes. Quote: I forgot to mention, WheatBack, that is one seriously nice $5 Educational Note you've got there! I can't even imagine how much it must have set you back, but I am very jealous... I try not to think about it.

Since there are no obsolete banknotes from Washington State, I started collecting depression era scrip from my home state. Here are 2 that are a little unuaual, wooden scrip from Tenino and Willapa Harbor. Now you have to admit, you don't see these every day.

This is my favorite note. I really like these Clevelands.  All of them. But this note is a special for me for many reasons...

Here is my only paper money. Bought it since the serial was low.

Literally living history in your hands. I'm very happy to have a few colonial notes in my collection.
