This lot consists of three US Legal Tender Notes, also known as United States Notes, featuring prominent red Treasury seals and red serial numbers. The collection includes one Series 1928 D note, one Series 1953 B note, and one Series 1963 note. Each note features the portrait of Thomas Jefferson on the obverse and a vignette of Monticello on the reverse. The Series 1928 D note displays serial number C67679295A and bears the signatures of Treasurer Julian and Secretary Morgenthau Jr. The Series 1953 B note displays serial number A64589509A and bears the signatures of Treasurer Smith and Secretary Dillon. The Series 1963 note displays serial number A06537008A and bears the signatures of Treasurer Granahan and Secretary Dillon. The Series 1963 note includes the motto In God We Trust on the reverse, which is absent from the 1928 D and 1953 B series examples.
Condition report:
The notes are in raw, unslabbed condition and show signs of moderate to heavy circulation. All three examples exhibit multiple vertical and horizontal folds, softened corners, and areas of foxing or minor staining, particularly on the reverse sides. The Series 1928 D note shows more pronounced wear with significant corner creasing and general paper wrinkling, consistent with a Very Good (VG) grade. The Series 1953 B and 1963 notes retain slightly better paper body despite circulation, consistent with Fine (F) to Very Fine (VF) grades. No major tears or pinholes are visible upon inspection.
