Talk:Federal Reserve Note

message: I  this article to insert commas in "$1,000" and "$5,000" for consistency with "$10,000".  This has now been  by 636Buster, stating: "the reason those notes are printed without commas is because they aren't printed so on the note."
Wikipedia has its own style guide that we follow, irrespective of what the Federal Reserve may print on banknotes, so we are not bound to follow their style.  Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Dates and numbers#Delimiting (grouping of digits) currently says:
:::* Numbers with five or more digits to the left of the decimal point (i.e. 10,000 or greater) should be delimited into groups so they can be easily parsed, such as by using a comma () every three digits (e.g. , , ). A full stop () should not be used to separate thousands (e.g. , ) to avoid confusion with the decimal point.
:::* Numbers with four digits to the left of the decimal point may or may not be delimited (e.g.  or ).
So even if the banknotes read "$10000" without a comma, Wikipedia's style guide requires it ("$10,000").  There is a discussion at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Dates and numbers#Comma delimiting for four-digit numbers proposing to amend the second point to read:
:::* Numbers with four digits to the left of the decimal point may or may not be delimited (e.g.  or ). They should be delimited when used alongside other numbers that are delimited, such as in lists or tables (e.g.,  instead of ).
Feel free to comment on the proposal there.  —sroc 💬 14:24, 1 March 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Commas in currency values 

message: I have moved some of the images around. The sections beginning with Production and distribution appear to be describing the small-size FRN of 1928 and later (or even more of the present day issue).
I reworked and inserted the existing 1914 type set (adding the four high denomination 1918 notes in the process). This was added between the section titled Value and the section on Production and distribution to serve as a more chronological bridge between the first (and only) large size FRN issues and the notes of today. Will add more information to the table.-Godot13 (talk) 18:51, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

replies: text: I agree that there doesn't seem to be a Wikipedia article on the list of current U.S. paper currencies that are valid as legal tender (meaning that they, if handed over to a creditor in a certain quantity, will erase the creditor's ability to undertake further action to induce the debtor to hand over more of either (a) paper currencies recognized as "legal tender" for the purpose of erasing (or partially erasing) the creditor's possibility for further action or (b) material things (including future actions) that can be readily exchanged for (a). By extension this applies to the nullifying of the possibility of a charge of theft by handing over such paper currency-notes at the time of taking possession of items formerly "owned" by another. This does not mean that handing over currency-notes that are deemed "legal tender" for this purpose is the ONLY way to nullify future actions against the person taking possession. Anyway, as to the incompleteness of Wikipedia's articles on U.S. legal tender currency-notes, many articles on these currency-notes omit the one-dollar bill. Where would be go to find that included in a full list?2600:1700:6759:B000:1C64:8308:33BC:E2D6 (talk) 20:15, 11 August 2023 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: A couple of days ago, an addition to the article was made suggesting that there had been a $100 million FRN "special wartime issue" had been made.  I reverted the change because I've never seen any evidence that this actually happened, other than some laughably bad forgeries.  2607:fb90:6050:28d:0:40:748c:6201, who made the original addition reverted my change without explanation.  I've left a note on his talk page asking if he's got any evidence, but I haven't heard back.  I wanted to get consensus on this rather than engaging in an edit war.

thread_title: $100,000,000 FRN

message: I don't get it; the article on United States Notes seems to imply they were printed until 1971, where they were replaced by Federal Reserve Notes. But according to this article, FRNs were being issued as early as 1914. Were they both issued concurrently? And what was the difference between the two? It ought to make this a little clearer, because I don't understand it at all.

replies: text: Yes-both FRNs and USNs were issued from 1914 through 1971 (although very few of the Series 1966 and 66A $100 USNs ever saw actual circulation).  The main functional difference is that USNs were issued directly by the Treasury, while FRNs were issued through the Federal Reserve System, and the amount of USNs that could legally be in circulation was capped at a little under $400 million.
