Red seals indicate a special series of currency called United States Notes. These were issued directly by the federal government rather than by the central bank (the Federal Reserve).

US Notes were functionally identical to Federal Reserve Notes and were discontinued in the late 1960s to save printing costs. All modern currency is issued as Federal Reserve Notes.
