Description
This sale features a 1935-A Hawai'i .00 Silver Certificate.During World War II, the government issued currency with a brown seal for Hawai'i distribution (and currency with a yellow seal for North Africa distribution). The idea was that if these areas fell into enemy hands during the war, the money could easily be identified and cancelled so as to prevent large monetary losses.
The Pictures shown - serial number F 41966581 C - are of the exact item you will receive.
A total of only 12,000 of these “F-C” notes were printed...compare that with the 264,000 mintage of the 1916-D Mercury Dimes and you get a sense of the true rarity of this item. It is the same rarity (12,000) as the 1935-A experimental “R” and “S” STAR notes, which are listed on eBay upwards of ,000. Only serial numbers beginning with 4196 and 4197 exist from this block. This is an attractive but still
affordable example of a note that is almost certain to rise in value over the years.
This note from the ultra-rare “F-C” block of the popular "Hawai'i" brown seal 1935-A series has minimal to light rounding and wear on all 4 corners. There are 3 full-length vertical folds, a full-length horizontal fold through the middle, and lesser folds and light wrinkling throughout. The bill shows good overall color, but there is a faint lime green line - about 1/2-inch in length - above the left serial number. Beyond these imperfections, you have an attractive bill from a very popular series, with strong embossing, a bold brown seal, and no holes, tears, rough edges, or missing pieces.
The bill will be shipped FREE by USPS First Class Mail in a rigid plastic sleeve. Buy-It-Now receives free upgrade to USPS Priority Mail!
Good Luck and happy bidding!!
