Description
This sale features a 1935-A .00 Silver Certificate with Hawaii overprint.During World War II, the government issued currency with a brown seal for Hawai’i distribution (and currency with a yellow seal for North Africa distribution). The idea was that if either of these areas fell into enemy hands during the war, the money could be easily identified and cancelled so as to prevent large monetary losses.
The Pictures shown - serial number C 06122640 C - are of the exact item you will receive.
This note from the C-C block of the 1935-A series has light to moderate rounding and wear on all 4 corners. There are 3 heavy vertical creases, a heavy horizontal crease through the middle, and lesser creases, folds, and wrinkles throughout. The bill is discolored from its use over the years, with some ink loss noted along the heavy creases. Also the name “RON” is written in blue ink to the right of Washington’s portrait. Also there is some rust-colored staining in and around both side margins; the total affected area is smaller than the brown seal. The edges are rough with multiple notches, small tears, and missing pieces; none of the damage extends into the printed area of the bill. Beyond these imperfections, you have a decent old note with a bold brown seal and no holes.
The bill will be shipped FREE by USPS First Class Mail in a protective plastic sleeve, surrounded by cardboard for extra protection.
Good Luck and happy bidding!
