Key Fact
Description
This is a 1935 United States Silver Certificate, small-size, featuring George Washington on the obverse and the Great Seal on the reverse.

History
Issued during the Great Depression, Silver Certificates like this one were a form of currency backed by silver bullion held by the U.S. Treasury. They represented a promise that the bearer could exchange the certificate for an equivalent amount of silver. This era saw significant economic hardship and shifts in monetary policy.
Facts
The 1935 series was the first year of issue for small-size Silver Certificates, replacing the larger "horse blanket" notes. This particular note's prefix 'W' indicates it was printed at the Western Supply Center. Silver Certificates were gradually phased out as backing for currency after the Silver Purchase Act was repealed.
Value Fact
The market value for 1935 Silver Certificates can vary significantly based on condition, rarity, and specific series variations. Notes in circulated condition are generally affordable, while uncirculated examples with exceptional eye appeal can command higher prices. Demand remains steady among collectors interested in U.S. currency history.
