What is the difference between a US Note and a Federal Reserve Note?
Federal Reserve Notes are obligations of the Federal Reserve System, the US central bank. The "Fed" is technically independent of the government so these bills are backed by the faith and credit of the bank rather than the US itself. United States Notes were obligations of the federal government itself. Like Federal Reserve Notes they are "fiat" money, but are backed by the faith and credit of the government rather than the central bank. In practice the two forms of currency were effectively interchangeable, so in the later 1960s the government stopped printing US Notes. Since then all US paper money has been issued through the Federal Reserve System. Starting with the 1928 series, both types of bills used almost identical designs. The most obvious difference is that US Notes had red seals and serial numbers while Federal Reserve Notes use the familiar green color. Also, Federal Reserve Notes have an indication (number and/or letter) of which Fed district distributed them. That feature was absent on US Notes because they weren't associated with any Fed districts.
Why does a 1963 5 dollar red seal indicate US Note rather than Federal Reserve?
A 1963 5 dollar red seal indicates US Note rather than Federal Reserve because it was issued as part of the United States Note series. United States Notes were a form of paper currency issued by the U.S. government directly, while Federal Reserve Notes were issued by the Federal Reserve System.
Which section of the treasury dept prints federal reserve notes?

What is the backing for Federal Reserve Notes?
Nothing tangible. Federal Reserve Notes in the United States are fiat money, backed by the people's faith in the issuing Federal Reserve bank.
How can you tell the FR number on fractional currency?
The Federal Reserve System was established in 1913, long after the last fractional U.S. notes were issued.
What is a bill with red seal on it?
In 1928 the Treasury adopted standard colors for bills. Red ink was used for United States Notes, blue for silver certificates, and green for Federal Reserve Notes. The most common denominations of US Notes were $2 and $5, although others were printed as well. US Notes were issued directly by the federal government rather than through the Federal Reserve System. The two kinds of currency served the same purpose so production of US Notes was suspended in 1971 to save on printing and distribution costs.
What is the value of a 1907 5 dollar Federal Reserve note?
Please check your bill again and post a new, separate question. The Federal Reserve System wasn't established until 1913 and the first Federal Reserve Notes are dated 1914.
