A factory with its smokestack appears, illustrating Americas pride in manufacturing. George and Martha Washington appear on the reverse.Silver Certificate Educational Note - 1896 $2.00

A mature Science presents youthful Steam and Electricity to commerce and manufacturing, also represented by mature ladies. This note was considered somewhat risqué in its time. Robert Fulton (American artist, engineer and inventor) and Samuel Morse (American painter and inventor) appear on the reverse.Silver Certificate Educational Note - 1896 $5.00
Referred to as the United States' most beautiful piece of paper money, this note features an allegorical depiction of Electricity as the Dominant force in the world. The reverse sees the heads of two Civil War generals: Ulysses S. Grant and Phillip Sheridan, flanked on all sides by ornate engraving. The female figure representing Electricity as the dominant force in the world depicted a scantily clad women, revealing a bare breast. This partial nudity was said to cause a disturbance nationwide, with Anthony Comstock, Secretary of the Society for Suppression of Vice, pressuring the U.S. Treasury to withdraw these obscene notes. Three years later, entirely new designs were issued replacing the controversial Educational series. This once "banned in Boston" note has since become the most popular of all U.S. Large Size bank notes.PLEASE NOTE: These currency displays do not contain real U.S. money.
