Coin Shop Currency - Silver Certificate - Five Dollars

Just some quick photos of Coin Shop Currency - Silver Certificate - Five Dollars

I picked up this Silver Certificate - Five Dollars from a local coin shop.

BLUE SEAL - SILVER CERTIFICATE - FIVE DOLLARS

This bill has some collectible value to it with a value of six dollars. It is worth an extra dollar and it looks cool with its Blue Seal and Blue Serial Numbers.

SILVER CERTIFICATE STATEMENT

The Five Dollar Silver Certificate states

• "THIS CERTIFIES THAT THERE IS ON DEPOSIT IN THE TREASURY OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FIVE DOLLARS IN SILVER PAYABLE TO THE BEARER ON DEMAND"

SILVER CERTIFICATE

The Silver Certificats have not been printed since the early 1960's and these bills have been 'replaced' with Federal Reserve Notes. In 1964, silver certificates could no longer be exchanged for silver dollars. In June 1967, Congress placed a one-year redemption period for the silver certificates, which allowed the bearer to receive silver bullion. The redemption period ended in June 1968.

NOT FEDERAL RESERVE NOTE

This is NOT a Federal Reserve Note from the Federal Reserve System, so it is "free of interest".

END THE FED

When I see the "END THE FED" signs, I wonder if the solution for the elimination of the Federal Reserve System is possible by returning to the silver certificates (and gold certificates) issued by the United States Treasury.

Please comment if you know more about the Federal Reserve Notes versus the Silver Certificates.

Here are the pictures...
