Fr. 2055-G • “Legal Tender for All Debts” Clause • Choice CU
A crisp, high-end example of the 1934-A Chicago $20 Federal Reserve Note, this Fr. 2055-G features bright paper, strong embossing, and bold overprints—everything you expect from a Choice Crisp Uncirculated early-design twenty.
This note carries the historic “Legal Tender for All Debts, Public and Private” clause, an important statement found on mid-century U.S. currency. This legal declaration affirmed that the note was valid for all financial obligations nationwide, reinforcing public confidence during a period of major economic transition following the Great Depression and the end of gold redemption. Collectors appreciate this clause as a hallmark of early small-size Federal Reserve Notes and an emblem of America’s evolving monetary system.
