1929 Brown Seal 50$ National Currency Fr New York, New York

Here are the pics.

Fastfords, Do you see where it says "or by like deposit?" Now look at the word deposit and do you see where Series of 1929 is overlapping it?



Laxmaster, just an FYI, when linking to the photos in the gallery, use the permanent link under file information. Otherwise the images will change as you upload more photos...

Hi Laxmaster92, yes, noticed it...this seems to be the way the 50's were printed...my example from FRB Philadelphia is the same, and the illustration in the Friedburg standard reference "Paper Money of the United States" (FRB San Francisco illustration) shows the same overlap. Interesting, since the 5,10,20, and 100's don't have the overlap.

AS for ideal pricing, in Very Fine it is worth about $100, in Extra Fine about $150, but the markings on it will lower those prices...I could probably get one like it (with markings) for about $75 at the local coin shows. I am assuming, by the way, that there is a lot of crispness left in the note, which the photos seem to indicate.

Wow that is a cool looking note! I've never seen one like that so far! Thanks for sharing
