My money (US dollars) is printed by the United States Treasury Department. My money (British pounds) is printed by the Royal Mint.
the security code is on the back where the signature is. Its the last 3 numbers of the printed code above the signature
Assuming the "F" is next to the date, it's what's called a series letter. It indicates which pairing of Treasury Secretary and US Treasurer were in office when that particular run of bills was first printed. The "F" on your bill means it was printed during the run begun when Robert B. Anderson was Treasury Secretary and Ivy Baker Priest was Treasurer; i.e. somewhere in the period between July 1957 and January 1961.So why does the bill have a 1935 date on it? Unlike dates on coins, the dates on US bills aren't necessarily the year they were printed. They indicate the start of what's called a "series". The letter is a kind of subseries within the series year.Up till 1974, a series date represented the year that a particular design was adopted. The series date stayed the same until that particular design was replaced. When a new Treasury Secretary or US Treasurer was appointed, a small letter would be put next to the date. The start of the series had no letter. When a new official was appointed an A would be added, then a B, C, and so on. "F" is the sixth letter which means it was printed as part of the seventh subseries, because the first one didn't have a letter.The somewhat absurd situation of 1935-dated bills being printed in the 1960s led to a change of policy in 1974. Since then, the series date is changed whenever a new Treasury Secretary is appointed, in addition to whenever there's a new design. The series letter now changes only when or if a new Treasurer is appointed during that series year.
There is no ñJî series bill. The series letter is next to the date and corresponds to the Treasury Secretary and/or Treasurer who where in office when the bill was printed. The ñJî is almost certainly the Federal Reserve Bank Indicator letter. The face value of the bill would be $140 depending on the condition of the bill.
The cvv is usually printed on the reverse of cards - close to the signature box.
All US bills carry the signatures of the Secretary of the Treasury and US Treasurer who were in office when the bill's series was first printed. As of 01/2013, the Secretary of the Treasury is Timothy Geithner and the Treasurer is Rosie Rios. Later in the year a new series will be printed when Jack Lew takes office as the new Secretary of the Treasury.
All US bills carry the signatures of the Secretary of the Treasury and US Treasurer who were in office when the bill's series was first printed. As of 02/2012, the Secretary of the Treasury is Timothy Geithner and the Treasurer is Rosie Rios.
John Stone was the Secretary to the Treasury from 8-Jan-1979 to 14-Sep-1984 inclusive. Australian One Dollar notes with his signature were printed in 1979 and 1982. John Stone should not be confused with Robert Johnston who was governor of the Reserve Bank of Australia from 1982 to 1989.
U.S. currency bears the signatures of the Treasury Secretary and United States Treasurer who were in office at the time the bills were printed. Current practice is to change the date only when a new Secretary is appointed, and to put a small letter next to the date when a new Treasurer is appointed. The date does NOT refer to the actual printing date but instead to the year that the Secretary took office.
Probably never. Modern practice is to add a series letter only when a new Treasurer is appointed, and to start a new series year whenever a new Secretary of the Treasury is appointed.The 2006 series started when Henry Paulson became Secretary of the Treasury but he left office when the Republicans were defeated in 2008. Once the current supply of bills runs out a new 2009 or 2010 series with Tim Geithner's signature will be printed.
In the United States of America, the Secretary of Treasury that is in office at the time the paper currency is printed is whose signature appears on the actual bill. It is the same signature used for all currency values: $1, $2, $5, $10, etc. Therefore, the signature will vary from year to year based on who actually held that office the year that the currency was printed.
All Australian banknotes have the names of the Governor of the Reserve Bank of Australia and the Secretary to the Treasury on them. These are usually in the form of a signature and appear on one side only. Prior to the introduction of the polymer banknotes, all Australian banknotes had the names of the pictured people printed on them, in very small print, in close proximity to the image. At the introduction of the polymer notes, there were no printed names for the featured people, only a (difficult to read) signature. Due to complaints from the public, the RBA included small printed names for all of the featured images.
The signatures on the current US $1 bill belong to Steven Mnuchin and Jovita Carranza. Mnuchin was the Secretary of the Treasury at the time the bill was printed, and Carranza was the Treasurer of the United States.
The date on a bill is not the year it was printed, it's the so-called "series" under which the bill was issued. Normally when a new Secretary of the Treasury is appointed, a new series is started. When a new Treasurer is appointed, a small letter is appended to the date. Because Henry Paulson was appointed as Treasury Secretary in 2006, bills bearing his signature are thus all dated Series 2006. If a new Treasurer is appointed before the end of the year those bills will read "2006 A". When a new Secretary is named in 2009, those bills will be Series 2009.
The series of a bill in US currency refers to when the bill was last redesigned, not to the year it was printed, so 1976 IS the series. The bill was redesigned in 1976 (the front looks pretty much the same, except that different people were Treasurer and Secretary of the Treasury than the last time the bill had been printed, and the 1976 serial numbers were printed in green rather than red, but the back is entirely different), so it's "Series 1976". By convention, the year is updated for "major" changes, and a letter is added for "minor" changes. Changing the signature of the treasurer is considered a minor change; after 1974, changing the signature of the secretary of the treasury is considered a major change (prior to that, changing either signature was a minor change). There are also series 1, series 2, etc. bills, but these are all from before the 20th century. At least by 1914 the new system where the series number represents the design year was in use, and all modern small-sized bills use this format.
There are no signatures on a US 1 dollar bill. The dollar bill features the signatures of the Secretary of the Treasury and the Treasurer of the United States on the bottom right side. However, these signatures are printed rather than physically signed.
If President Truman autographed the bill himself (i.e. the signature is NOT one of the printed ones at the bottom of the note) you would need to take it to an autograph dealer for authentication. If you are simply referring to the signatures of the Treasury Secretary and U.S. Treasurer printed on either side of the portrait, neither of those can ever contain the President's name. Either way, someone would have to examine your bill in person.
