- Description
- The U.S. government released a series of silver certificates in 1896 with neoclassical designs. They are considered to be among the most beautiful American notes ever printed. These notes are often referred to as the “Educational Series.” The one dollar note depicts the allegorical figure of History instructing Youth. The two dollar note depicts the figure of Science presenting the children, Steam and Electricity, to the adults, Commerce and Manufacture. The figure of Electricity also appears on the five dollar note, but there she has matured into a powerful woman of influence.
