Product Details

- Three note set enhanced with colorized overlay of the iconic 1896 Educational Series notes.
- Each note is genuine U.S. tender
- Face of the $1: "History Instructing Youth," a beautifully engraved allegorical scene depicting History pointing toward the Washington Monument, with portraits of George and Martha Washington.

Each denomination tells a unique story through allegorical imagery, honoring education, science, and the transformative power of innovation in a rapidly modernizing America. The series was short-lived, issued only in 1896, as public reaction to the elaborate and unconventional designs led to their replacement just a few years later, making their brief existence all the more compelling to collectors and historians alike. Today the original 1896 Educational Series notes are among the most sought-after pieces in all of American numismatics, and this set brings that legendary artwork to life on genuine modern U.S. legal tender, making it an accessible and stunning tribute to one of the greatest achievements in currency design history. - Specifications
