United States Notes by John Jay Knox, 2nd edition revised by Gene Hessler. This book contains information on the Financial History of U.S. Treasury notes.

This notable and rare book, originally published in 1885, has been missing from the libraries of almost all collectors of U.S. paper Money and students of American Financial History in our lifetime.

Now do to the foresight of numismatic book publisher Sanford J. Durst this book is made available with a limited edition of only 500 copies.

This is a must-have book for the serious
collector of United States Notes!
