Coin Shop Currency - 1929 - NATIONAL CURRENCY - TEN DOLLARS

Here are some photos and a description of Coin Shop Currency - 1929 Ten Dollar Bill - National Currency. I find it unusual that it states at the top: "NATIONAL CURRENCY".

I picked up this 1929 Ten Dollars from a local coin shop. This is in circulated, good condition. This design on the Ten Dollar bill continued from 1929 up to the year 2000. The appearance is the same as bills that are still in circulation from before 2000. The front and back is probably very familiar to many people still today.

This bill has collectible value that doubled its face value. This bill is worth Twenty dollars, which is double its face value because of its rarity. There are others from the same time frame that are more valuable if they were issued from a local bank. This bill was issued by the Federal Reserve Bank in Chicago, Illinois.

1929 STOCK MARKET CRASH / 1930s DEPRESSION

Consider that this 1929 Ten Dollar bill was in circulation during the Stock Market Crash - Wall Street Crash, which occurred on October 24, 1929, also known as Black Tuesday.
Moreover, maybe this Ten Dollar bill was coveted during the depression of the 1930s. Maybe that is why it has existed and survived for almost the last 90 years.
