Customer Reviews

This set of emergency issue $1 Silver Certificates from World War II is sure to be appreciated by veterans, history buffs and collectors alike! On December 7, 1941, Japan attacked Pearl Harbor, devastating half of the American fleet. Congress declared war on Japan, then on Italy and Germany 3 days later. And our paper money entered the war – including these $1 Silver Certificates!


Instead of the familiar blue seal, these notes displayed specially colored seals so they could be declared worthless if they fell into enemy hands. With this 2-note set, you’ll enjoy a brown seal note with hawaii overprints on both sides, recalling the raid on Pearl Harbor, and a North Africa note bearing a yellow seal, produced for Operation Torch. Now over 75 years old, these Very Fine notes are sure to be prized additions in your collection.
