U.S. federal currency began during the Civil War and this favorite 1899 "horseblanket" note brought Lincoln and Grant back together again in small cameos adorned by laurel. Above, a vigorous black eagle defends American traditions, with Capitol Hill shown in the background. Unlike Civil War currency, this $1 silver certificate promised redemption in hard-asset silver coins. The ship's wheel of the reverse has a classic American look with highly intricate butterfly weaving on the borders. The note's "horseblanket" 7 ¼x3" size is much larger than modern U.S. currency. Very Good quality. 7 1/4" x 3" dimensions
HAPPY BIDDING!!

awesome. been trying to get my hands on one of these for years
Information on: This Speelman-White Black eagle Year: 1899 Type: Silver Certificate Denomination: One Dollar Bill Value: The value of one dollar 1899 silver certificates is based on their condition and serial number. READ ON.... Description: One dollar silver certificates from the series of 1899 are the second most common one dollar silver certificate printed. Collectors call these one dollar bills "black eagles" because of the central eagle with spread wings. This is the only piece of United States currency that has two president on it. Lincoln and Grant are found on either side of the eagle. 1899 silver certificates have a blue seal, serial numbers, and a big blue one on the left side of the bill. These notes are very common and are valued almost purely on their condition. Variations: There are 13 different varieties of 1899 one dollar silver certificates. There are two rarer varieties. The most sought after black eagle is known as the 229a. A 229a black eagle is signed by Vernon and McClung AND the date 1899 must be written to the right of the blue seal to qualify. The other rare variety is known as a 231 and it is signed by Napier and Thompson. Today the 231 is actually rarer, but it is not quite as valuable.
Other possible signature combinations are as follows: Lyons - Roberts Lyons - Treat Vernon - Treat Napier - McClung Parker - Burke Teehee - Burke Elliott - Burke Elliott - White Speelman - White Inscriptions: Silver Certificate - Series of 1899 - Act of August 4 1886 - Register Of The Treasury - Treasurer Of The United States - This Certifies That There Has Been Deposited In The Treasury Of The United States One Silver Dollar Payable To Bearer On Demand Washington, D.C. - United States Silver Certificate - Amer Septent Sigil Thesaur - This Certificate Is Receivable For Customs, Taxes and All Public Dues, And When So Received May Be Reissued
I'll tell you what man I really do want this and I have a pretty decent amount of credits but I think it's going to go pretty high. But I will go all in lol..
Condition is very important when it comes to the value. eBay offers a lot of information of what these are selling for, and I mean on Auctions that have already SOLD, not ones that are being bid on. Something is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it.. I always say. As for me, I'm sending lots of Good Luck to Rickrod22 for this auction, so bid up ppl ;-) >>>>poof
