Item Description
Silver certificates were first printed in 1878 in response to protests of the gold-standard (all paper money was redeemable for gold, so now some of it was redeemable for silver!).
One dollar silver certificates were printed from 1886 to 1957. The US government issued silver certificates as a response to criticism of the Fourth Coinage Act, which placed the US on the gold standard. There were many different one-dollar series issued. There are different sizes and some are more rare than others. The older, large-note series are generally much more valuable. Click here to learn more about each of the different series.
Silver certificates were redeemable for real silver back in the day. Today you can no longer redeem them for silver but they are still legal tender so you can spend them for their face value. However most bills in lightly circulated condition will be worth more as collectible items.
