    I always wanted to know about the color meanings. Thanks for showing the lesser known bills. I had an old $10 note that a couple of my co workers said was fake,but it was confirmed by a bank.

      Highly unlikely that we'll see that happen unless the Federal Reserve becomes no longer involved in the printing of money. It's gonna be green seals for a very long time.

    While there was never a $2 Gold Certificate it was still a good episode. Next you ought to cover "Brown Seals".

  • @richardwoodell5772

    The gold certificates Series 1934 were in denominations of $100, $1,000, $10,000, and $100,000. They were used solely for gold transactions between the U.S. Treasury and the Federal Reserve Banks. None of them ever circulated outside the government. In face, it is illegal for a private citizen to possess one of them! You can see them, however at the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, and some museums. As far as the $100,000 bill is concerned, there are only a dozen or so still remaining, and All of them have been accounted for!
    So if someone ever approaches you about giving change for his $100,000 bill, politely, but firmly, remind him he's breaking the law!

    • @TheTwoDollarBillDocumentary
      @TheTwoDollarBillDocumentary  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Somehow missed this reply. That's very interesting. I will look into it for a possible video. The Olympics were in Atlanta in 1996, but those bills would have had to be printed in 1995 and thus had that year. They probably made it to the public early in 1996.

    One thing one should note is that the price of gold was set at $20 an ounce but when all the gold was recalled from the ppl, the gubmint ended up raising the price of gold to $35 an ounce..

      I have two $20 Gold Certificates. One with Washington and One with Jackson.
      * I just recently picked up another 1922 $10 Gold Certificate and another 1922 $20 gold certificate but i had to redeem one of my $20 Gold Certificates ( not really ) for a 1915 Saint Gaudens $20 Gold Piece from Philadelphia *.

    The 3 primary colors are red, blue, and yellow. Interestingly, they are the 3 coolest bills (US notes, silver certificates, and gold certificates). Lime green ones from 1934 are cool too!

    • @TheTwoDollarBillDocumentary
      @TheTwoDollarBillDocumentary  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Working with video, the three primary colors are red, green and blue for sure. Ever heard of RGB? It's everywhere. I've never heard of yellow as a primary color - you get it by mixing red and green.

    Can you please explain what you mean by the Red Seal United States Notes were issued directly by the Government and not by the U.S. Treasury, as it seems to me to be the exact same thing ? Of course neither the United States Notes or the Green Seal Federal Reserve Notes had / have any real backing except the ”full faith and credit of the United States.”

    • @TheTwoDollarBillDocumentary
      @TheTwoDollarBillDocumentary  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      The U.S. Treasury currently determines each year's currency print order based on a number of factors, and puts their order in with the Federal Reserve for printing. When red seals were being made, the Treasury was not involved in those decisions; government officials made them. That's about as simple as I can explain it, although there are more nuances to it.
