Our first place winner will receive a coupon for 1 note graded under the Standard grading tier. (You must have an active account with PMG,call PMG for details) There will also be a runner up prize given to a randomly selected player with the correct answer.

 

REMINDER: The Numisma-Quest ends on Saturday at midnight EST. Entries after that time will not be valid. See the Trivia info post for more details.

 

Have a great weekend everyone and good luck!

That would be H. J. Sheehan, Secretary to the Treasury. Many notes are graded "Thick Sheehan Signature" and later ones have a thinner signature.

 

Example of the former thick signature: r8a – Mc15 # 1933 Riddle/Sheehan Ten Shilling Banknotes

(Thick Sheehan Signature)
