Series 1935 F United States One Dollar Silver Certificate

This item is a 1935 F series United States one-dollar silver certificate, a distinctive form of legal tender historically backed by silver bullion. The note features a central portrait of George Washington, flanked by numerical '1' denominations in the corners and the characteristic blue Treasury seal on the left side, which identifies it specifically as a silver certificate rather than a standard Federal Reserve Note. The serial number 'Z 20335509 I' is printed in blue ink, matching the color of the seal. Physically, the bill appears to be in circulated condition. Notable condition issues include a prominent vertical fold down the center, minor corner rounding, and general signs of handling and slight discoloration across the paper's surface, consistent with moderate use in commerce. There is visible fraying and slight tearing along the bottom edge near the center crease. The printing remains legible, with 'Silver Certificate' clearly displayed along the bottom border. This specific series, 1935 F, represents a mid-20th-century era of American currency production, specifically noted for the signatures of Priest and Anderson. The craftsmanship reflects the era's high-quality intaglio printing processes, resulting in fine detail in the portraiture and decorative scrollwork.
