Of the notes I picked up the vast majority I liked the way they looked but the $20 gold and the $1 Legal Tender, I wasn't overly happy with them. On another forum a member put up this one for sale and I couldn't say no. Fantastic!

First addition in a long time. Thanks to Coin Frog for the great note!   This is a Hawaii note. The Hawaii overprint note is one of a series of banknotes (one silver certificate and three Federal Reserve Notes) issued during World War II as an emergency issue after the attack on Pearl Harbor. The intent of the overprints was to easily distinguish United States dollars captured by the Imperial Japanese Armed Forces in the event of an invasion of Hawaii and render the notes worthless. Although a sizeable number of the notes were recalled and destroyed after the end of World War II, many escaped destruction and exist as collectibles of numismatic interest in the present day. |

Super nice addition Helder.
The 1935A $1 SC emergency issued notes are some of my favorites. I'd show them to friends and they couldn't believe the cool block overprint of HAWAII on the back. I'd have to explain why a note with a date six years before Pearl Harbor could come about.

Thanks all! I really like these odd denominations. And being from NJ really made me want it.
