| Description: 1878 marked the first year that The United States issued silver certificates. Today these are so scarce because of their high face value. Notes like this really weren’t even collectible until the 1950s. So for about 80 years this was just a $100 bill to everyone – there was no reason to save it; and due to the high fave value, it would have been very expensive to keep as a curiosity item.
All one hundred dollar silver certificates have a portrait of James Madison.
