Series 1928 C Five Dollar United States Note (Red Seal)

This is a Series 1928 C $5 United States Note, commonly referred to as a 'Red Seal' note due to its distinct red Treasury seal and red serial numbers. The obverse features a central portrait of Abraham Lincoln housed in an oval frame. The note displays the serial number G07354672A in two locations and carries the signatures of Julian (Treasurer of the United States) and Morgenthau Jr. (Secretary of the Treasury). The design includes a large scalloped red seal on the left side and the word 'FIVE' in large block letters on the right. In terms of condition, the note shows visible signs of circulation including multiple vertical and horizontal folds, suggesting a grade in the 'Fine' to 'Very Fine' range. There is noticeable surface soiling, minor corner rounding, and some fraying along the edges. The paper appears slightly toned with age but retains its structural integrity. These notes were issued directly by the U.S. Treasury rather than the Federal Reserve and represent a classic era of small-size American currency. The intricate fine-line engraving and specialized paper with embedded fibers reflect the high-quality craftsmanship of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing during the mid-20th century.
