I’ve gotten a little carried away this past week!
I’ve gotten a few that I’ve wanted so I’m happy with the new additions.
And the matching red back:

This one completes the 5th issue for me:

And this is my first example of the 4th issue Washington 25c a somewhat tough note!
The red back 5c I got on eBay, the others were from a friend that is liquidating his fractional collection.
That’s why I got so many so quickly. I usually like to take my time with these, but I knew they’d be gone soon if I didn’t act quickly.
It’s time for a break now.

Impressive assortment. Makes me want to get interested in Fractional Currency. Thanks for posting them.
Hey ... if you didn't get them when you did ... you wouldn't have them
Very nice pick-ups!!
You have indeed have some Beautiful Notes 👍
Congrats
Wow, those are beautiful.
Unless one is familiar with the series, it's hard to appreciate how few survive in really nice grades, like these.
The first note, the 5 cent green back, has especially huge margins and the embossing is exceptional. All are top quality and that seems to be the common theme in your fine collection.
These historical notes were circulated for a decade and a half. The fifth and final issue represents the notes in circulation during the mid 1870s, when silver coin hoarding finally ended and the mint was able to produce enough coin to meet the commercial needs of the Nation.
Thanks for the compliments everybody!
