message: Didn't somebody at Treasury issue a $0.05 note with his own face on it, leading to a rule "no living people on the money"?  Trekphiler 23:26, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

message: Treasury (Coin) Note is used by numismatists to refer to the notes authorized by the Sherman Silver Purchase Act.  However the contents of this article describes Fractional or Postage Currency of the Civil War era - a different thing entirely. --LondonYoung (talk) 16:14, 28 May 2009 (UTC)

message: I would like to convert the existing start-class article into a List (with the goal of becoming a Featured List). I would add to the existing text, at least double the number of references, and add a table containing a complete typeset of fractional currency (high resolution 800dpi images) from the Smithsonian Institution. Any objections? - Godot13 (talk) 22:47, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

message: I've readded the intro tag, as this article does not explain what the currency is in the introduction. --Dmol (talk) 03:29, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: I've qualified the lead's description to explain that they're "low-denomination banknotes of the United States dollar". How's this? — RAVENPVFF · talk · 14:22, 8 October 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Intro tag added, as the lede does not say what the currency is. 

message: Who were the signatories on the bills?
The caption of the first picture states that Francis E. Spinner "autograph"ed the bills featuring his likeness.
I doubt that that to be true/correct.
:Due to the large numbers of bills printed, regardless of denomination, it was standard practice to have numerous "secretaries" signing the bills.
:As such, it is basically impossible for any of the named signatories to have actually signed any bill.
Therefore, any signature on a bill cannot be called an "autograph."
However, someone should really look into this to make sure and verify, one way or the other, about who actually signed all those bills that were printed. 2600:8800:784:8F00:C23F:D5FF:FEC4:D51D (talk) 01:02, 2 June 2020 (UTC)
