Why purchase this perfectly graded 2018 Smithsonian Edition $100,000 1934 Gold Certificate?

This 24 karat gold foil note is a stunning 2018 Smithsonian reproduction of a 1934 Gold Certificate having a face value of $100,000. Following the gold recall in 1933, publicly issued gold certificates were withdrawn from circulation. Those issued in 1934 in denominations of $100, $1,000, $10,000 and $100,000 were used strictly for transactions between Federal Reserve Banks.

Design of the $100,000 Gold Certificate

A portrait of Woodrow Wilson, the 28th President of the United States, is featured on the obverse. The design of the original note is replicated with astounding detail, including the signatures of William Alexander Julian and Henry Morgenthau Jr., the Treasurer and Secretary of the Treasury of the United States, respectively, in 1934. The blue and yellow sun logo of the Smithsonian appears to the left of Wilson's image replacing the Treasury Seal.

The reverse is ornamented with a traditional guilloche and filigree pattern which includes the note's face value of "$100,000" and "THE UNITED STATES OF AMRICA."
