Did anyone find 500 certificates for $5,000 each in Great Grandpa's attic?

If you did, the Treasurer of the United States would like to know.

    A portrait of Mr. Spinner and his signature appear on this fractional note.

    Ah...the good old "Mutton Chop" hairdo !

    The archives have many letters signed by Spinner - all with the same distinctive signature.

    (PS: Since the note is for half a dollar, is that whey there is half a person on it? Did the quarter dollar notes have a quarter person on them out of an excess of logic?)
