These historic notes would make great gift ideas for any currency collector.

Being an "Army Brat" as well as a Retired Army Veteran, I was fortunate enough to have spent three years of my childhood in Hawaii. While I certainly have no recollection of these during the sixties, I'm sure they were floating around. I'm pleased to have this one. Thank You, APMEX.
