1928 $10 Gold Certificate

This 1928 $10 Gold Certificate, Fr. 2400, represents the first small-size series of Gold Certificates. These notes were redeemable in gold coin until 1933, when the Gold Reserve Act made private gold ownership illegal. The distinctive orange-gold Treasury seal and serial numbers set these apart from other currency of the era.

Graded About Uncirculated 50 by PMG, this note shows minimal circulation while retaining strong eye appeal. The orange-gold overprints remain vibrant and clear against the black design elements. The paper is bright and clean, with just a few light folds consistent with the grade. The reverse displays a crisp rendition of the U.S. Treasury building in deep green ink, maintaining excellent detail and contrast.
