A Guide Book Of United States Paper Money: Complete Source for History, Grading, and Prices

by Arthur L. Friedberg

Building on the comprehensive scope of the classic Friedberg text, Q. David Bowers has written a definitive history of paper currency of the United States. Every federal note--from the ultra rare Demand Notes of 1861 to the lunch money in your wallet today--is described in detail. Bowers' engaging narrative captures the romance and history of American paper money, and also explores recent developments in the hobby and market. Combining the hobby-standard Friedberg numbering system with retail prices and hundreds of color and black-and-white photos, this book promises to be a standard reference for years to come.
