About a year ago I heard Paul Harvey on the radio talk about U.S. paper money. A lot of interesting facts, such as whose picture is on such and such bill, etc. The most interesting fact was about the 3-dollar bill. Yes, a 3-dollar bill! It existed in the first half of this century, and was published by a bank in (I think) New York. Furthermore, if you have one of these bills, it is still legal tender and can be used. Of course nobody but a large bank would accept it from you and if you had such a bill you wouldn't change for three dollars ... I have three trivia questions that I got from his talk: 1- You won't believe this one when you see the answer! Whose picture was on the three dollar bill? 2- What is the largest bill (face value-wise) that was ever printed. 3- Whose picture is on the bill in question #2. I will post the answers in about a week. H. Reza Taheri ...!ihnp4!ihuxb!reza (312)-979-1040
