One-Dollar Banknote designed on Modern $1 Bill

Genuine Legal Tender One-Dollar Currency
Stanton served as Secretary of War under the Lincoln
Administration during most of the American Civil War. Edwin Stanton appeared on
U.S. paper money in 1890 and 1891. The bills are called “treasury
notes” or “coin notes” and are widely collected today. The
original notes are considered by many to be among the finest examples of
detailed engraving ever to appear on banknotes. The artists of the Merrick Mint
have used an advanced technology over this modern uncirculated United States $1
bill, enhancing it with images from the 1891 $1 U.S. Edwin Stanton Banknote, to
create a collectible work of art.
There was a time and place in American history when
American paper notes were almost like small works of art carried around by
average Joes in their pockets. In 1890s and first decade of the 1900s, the
United States sought to create paper currency designs that were worthy of
attention and awe from everyday Americans. While most of these notes have been
lost to history, with the few remaining specimens in the hands of avid
collectors, the options are not lost for modern collectors. Private mints have
taken advances in high-definition imaging to recreate some of the nation’s
greatest note designs on modern Federal Reserve Notes. Ideal for collectors,
these affordable new legal tender notes are now available to eBay customers.
