Certified by PMG (Paper Money Guaranty) as Choice Uncirculated 63, this note retains sharp details, vivid color, and original paper quality. Featuring the facsimile signatures of Treasurer W. O. Woods and Treasury Secretary Andrew W. Mellon, this note stands as a significant relic from the early 20th century when the United States backed its paper money with physical gold reserves.

The 1928 Series Gold Certificates were among the last issued by the U.S. Treasury before the country abandoned the gold standard in 1933. These notes were redeemable in gold coin “on demand,” as printed boldly across the face — a promise that made them highly trusted and historically significant. Gold certificates like this $10 example were primarily used in banking and commercial transactions, representing actual gold stored in the Treasury.
