***Auction Highlight*** PCGS 1862 $1 Large Size Legal Tender Note Fr-16c "The GreenBack" Graded f15 details By PCGS. Series 1862 Legal Tender bills were the first Federally issued notes. They came to be nicknamed greenbacks for the color of the back. These notes were printed on paper that was very fragile so it's common to find them in horribly compromised condition. Finding a Nicer One Like this is a rarity. Head of Salmon P. Chase, Secretary of the Treasury under Abraham Lincoln, 1861-1864, and Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court 1864-1873. He is probably best known to numismatists for his causing the motto "In God We Trust" to be adopted for our national coinage.
