United States/Stamps : Banknote identification

Author	Postings
sheepshanks 31 Dec 2014 10:53:10pm	While looking into why they are called Banknotes I came across this site which seems at first glance to be very well organised and full of detail. No doubt many of you have already found and used the site but for newbies, such as myself, to American varieties it will prove invaluable. http://www.1847usa.com/index.htm It covers various years of USA stamps with illustrations in colour and enlarged. The following site has a more historical overview of the various printing companies. http://www.hobbizine.com/page0019.html vic (Modified by Moderator on 2015-01-01 10:08:21) 1 Member likes this post.

The National Bank Note Co. also printed various security paper; stocks, bonds, paper currency and postage stamps. After July 1894 all stamp printing shifted to the US Bureau of Engraving & Printing.
