The 2009 series carries historical significance, as these notes were printed during the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis. Collectors often seek currency from this era because it represents a pivotal time in U.S. economic history. This note offers rarity (star notes are significantly more rare than regular notes), historical context, and investment potential, combined with the security of PMG's trusted grading system and the note's pristine condition.
Timothy Geithner:
- Role: Geithner served as the Secretary of the Treasury from 2009 to 2013 during the Obama administration. His tenure was particularly significant because he played a key role in managing the U.S. government's response to the 2008 financial crisis.
- Historical Significance:
- Geithner was instrumental in designing and implementing the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP), which aimed to stabilize the financial system by rescuing failing banks and encouraging lending.
- He was also involved in the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, legislation passed in response to the financial crisis to reduce risks in the financial system and prevent future economic collapses.
- Legacy: Geithner's policies during the recovery from the Great Recession were highly scrutinized, with both praise for stabilizing the economy and criticism for bailing out Wall Street over Main Street.
- Role: Rios served as the Treasurer of the United States from 2009 to 2016, also under the Obama administration.
- Historical Significance:
- Rios was a key figure in efforts to redesign U.S. currency, with a focus on increasing representation of women and people of color on American banknotes.
- She helped initiate the process that led to the decision to put Harriet Tubman on the $20 bill, a move that aimed to honor an African American woman and abolitionist as a prominent symbol of American values?.
- During her time as Treasurer, she oversaw the production of more than $1.7 trillion in U.S. currency and was a vocal advocate for women's contributions to history.
Together, these two figures played crucial roles in shaping U.S. economic policy and the national conversation about representation on currency during the 21st century.
