Description: Description Fr. 248. 1896 $2 Silver Certificate. PMG Gem Uncirculated 65 EPQ. An attractive example of one of the most iconic notes ever produced by the United States, the "Educational Series" of 1896 marks one of the most distinctive entries in the canon of American paper money. Issued in only a trio of denominations and featuring vignettes which detail various allegorical representations detailing subjects from education to electricity, the $2 note depicts an allegorical representation entitled Science Presenting Steam and Electricity to Industry and Commerce engraved down to the most minute detail in a striking manner unreminiscent of what would come in the following decades. Befitting the superior aesthetic quality of this note, this example likewise marks a strong example for the type and is preserved in an uncommon state of preservation.
