These are my first silver certificates.
What Are Silver Certificates?Silver Certificates were representative money issued by the U.S. from 1878 to 1964. They looked like regular dollar bills, but they carried a special promise: the bearer could redeem them for an equivalent amount of silver.For example, a $1 Silver Certificate could once be exchanged for one silver dollar coin or silver bullion of equivalent value.

Unfortunately you can no longer redeem these for silver. Would be cool to go cash these in.
I over paid for these. I kinda go hustled. I didn’t do my due diligence. These are probably worth around $3-4 each I paid about 8 each.
All good. Yoh win and you lose some.
Still cool to own some of history. Take a look.
These are from the mosh common years. 1935 and 1957.
I’ll probably give 1 to my dad and keep the other 2.
Keep stacking.
