This large-size $1 Silver Certificate from the Series of 1923 is a true relic of American monetary history—widely referred to as the “Horse Blanket” due to its noticeably larger size than modern bills. Issued in the final year before currency was reduced to today’s dimensions, this note captures the grandeur of early 20th-century design and function. Each note represents an original circulated piece, showing light natural variation from age and handling. Subtle differences in preservation among the available notes enhance their authentic vintage character and individuality, making every example uniquely collectible.
