Description

FR‑247 1896 Series $2 Silver Certificate — the iconic Educational Series — remains one of the most artistically celebrated issues in U.S. paper money. Issued in $1, $2, and $5 denominations, these notes are prized for their allegorical designs and short-lived production. This example is a well-circulated survivor, graded PMG Fine 15 with no comments on the holder. While solidly circulated, the note retains good body and integrity, with honest wear consistent with its grade. Light soiling is present, but the paper remains intact and stable, making it an attractive mid-grade representative of this classic series. Signed Tillman–Morgan, this note offers collectors an affordable entry point into the Educational Series, especially when compared to the steep premiums commanded by higher-grade or uncirculated examples. For collectors seeking historical significance, visual appeal, and value-conscious pricing, this Fine-grade example checks all the right boxes. A strong opportunity to own a genuine piece of late‑19th‑century American currency artistry without the uncirculated price tag.
