High EV (higher EV viewed as a set), high quality.
Federal Reserve Bank Notes (FRBN) were issued by the United States government in three series: 1915, 1918, and 1929. These notes were directly backed by one of the 12 District Federal Reserve Banks that comprise the Federal Reserve Bank (FRB) system.
Series of 1915 and 1918 are referred to as “Large-size” notes (average 7.375 x 3.125 inches or 187 x 79 mm) and Series of 1929 as “Small-size” notes (6.125 x 2.625 inches or 156 x 67 mm) based primarily on their size relative to each other.

Support Very nice work as always, though I do have a question. I see that the $100 FRBN (1915) is not an actual circulating note and does not have the reverse a true note would have. Is an example of an actual circulating note just not available in this denomination? Rreagan007 (talk) 20:32, 11 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, the $100 FRBN was more of a concept note: it was designed and engraved (obverse only), but never went into production (i.e., they were never issued).-Godot13 (talk) 06:16, 12 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
