An interesting sheet of currency from the Assignats issue of the 1790's

And the reverse showing the heavy heavy embossing.

Quite interesting. I love the look of the paper all by itself.

However why the series number are all the same?

I'm impressed.

Wow. Where do you come across such a nice example of an old sheet like that??

Very cool! the serial numbers are the same but the signatures are different, is it a trial sheet?

Actually in this case Serie refers to the series of the notes, not the serial numbers. The signatures changed because this was apparently a way of letting a lot of fools have their names on what was quickly worthless paper.

I really am not sure when I bought this sheet, it was a long time ago, apparently when I was a kid, and I have a note that I paid $10 for it. They may not be all that uncommon, it is possible to find sheets of Colonial USA notes, as they lost value quickly enough that often they were not cut and circulated before becoming valueless and just sitting around.

Neat!

Quite incredible for a 1790 printed sheet. The prints are excellent.
