Here is the $5 Series 1891 Treasury (or Coin) note. The signature combination of Rosecrans and Nebeker dates the printing of this example to 1891-1893.   |

One of my favorites is the series of 1896 Educational notes. Beautiful designs, both front and rear.   |

Just a super example. Been looking for one in that grade for awhile.  |

This note has been in my family for a while. I now own it. It originally came from my grandfather who has had it since at least the early 60s. We found a notebook with it dated 1962 and this note was cataloged in it. Rumor is it likely came from his father (my great grandfather).   Edited by WheatBack

I got to get me an Educational $5. Nice note and story Wheat. Out of all the large sized notes that I show to friends and family, this note and the Chief gets the most oohs and aahs.   I sure hope I don't get yelled at for this note being a series 1901... Edited by SteveInTampa

Love those Bisons, even if they aren't pre-1900!
Great-looking $5, Wheat - how do you grade it?

One of, if not the most prolifically printed note of all the pre-1900's large size notes. The Black Eagle. It's iconic center vignette and Lincoln and Grant portraits make it a must have for most collectors. Readily available in virtually every grade and signature combination. The series 1899 $1 Silver Certificate were printed for over 25 years. My personal advice, that I borrowed from Mr.Frog, if looking for an example for your collection, have patience, do your homework and buy it ONCE. Don't buy something to upgrade later.   |

Very nice Bison, educational notes, and 1891 Treasury note.
The designs are phenomenal, but one thing that kind of irks me is that they are a bit cost prohibitive in mid to high grade.
