Free Downloads Paper Money Of The United States: A Complete Illustrated Guide With Valuations. The Standard Reference Work On Paper Money
Hardcover edition. Regularly $67.50. Now $42.50 60th anniversary edition Since 1953, the definitive standard reference on paper money. Completely revised & updated All illustrations in color 800+ photos 328 pages From the first year of Federal paper money, 1861, to the present, the fronts and backs of all classes and types of currency, from 3 cents to 10,000 dollars are illustrated. These are accompanied by text listing, describing and pricing every variety of paper money ever issued, more than 10,000 prices in all. With close to 1,000 color photographs, the result is a complete pictorial, descriptive and numismatic history of the currency of the United States. There are supplemental sections on Colonial and Continental Currency (notes issued from 1680 to 1788), the Treasury Notes of the War of 1812, considered by some to be the first national currency, a comprehensive listing by type of the issues of the Confederate States of America, and sections devoted to paper money errors, postage envelopes, and encased postage stamps. The latter two, along with Fractional Currency, were created to alleviate the shortage of change needed for commerce during the Civil War. The listing in the (over . . .) Appendix of the 14,348 National Banks that existed from 1863 to 1929 also shows the numbers of large size and small size notes known to exist for each note-issuing bank. Paper money collectors depend on the Friedberg Numbering SystemTM, a uniform method of cataloging bank notes that is the international standard for American currency. This numbering shorthand, along with the hundreds of photographs, enables anyone to instantly locate a specific banknote, and allows a dealer to advertise a note without need of extensive description. A distinguished panel of acknowledged experts on paper money has assisted the authors, enabling them to establish accurate and up-to-the minute valuations for all issues. Paper Money of the United States has been an invaluable asset to currency collectors and numismatists for generations. It possesses an appeal and value of its own, not just to lovers of Americana and of the fine art of engraving, but to students of American history, finance and economics. It is recognized as a landmark work and is the undisputed standard reference on American currency internationally acknowledged as the most comprehensive and universally quoted guide on the subject. Banks in America and throughout the world will find this book especially useful in that it makes possible the immediate identification of all obsolete but still legal tender paper money, while simultaneously giving the collector s value of each note. It is a book which belongs in every library, public and private.

As the description of this book indicates, "Paper Money of the United States" covers items that are not included in the smaller format "A Guide Book to United States Paper Money" (also by the Friedbergs), such as colonial, War of 1812, Confederate, and other issues. One especially excellent feature that the description of this book omits is the listing of the chartered banks, associated charter numbers, and known number of large- and small-size chartered bank issues. Despite the larger format of this book, however, the illustrations of the Federal large- and small-size notes is smaller, so that those who wish to see larger images of those issue may wish to obtain the smaller guide instead of (or in addition to) this work. This book also contains a number of minor errors that should have been caught in proofing and editing, but on the whole is an excellent resource and fascinating reference.
Why look any further for a book that contains all types of US Currency. From the large dollars bills to small ones, will educated one that they can look for different type of bills and their value.
A well made book with beautiful photos, in depth information, & historical data. A great all around reference for U.S. paper money enthusiasts & American history buffs.
Fantastic Christmas present. I can't stop looking at this book. The Illustrations are great.Expensive but worth it for the information as well as a keepsake.
