| Opmerkingen |
The 1899 $1 Silver Certificate — universally known among collectors as the "Black Eagle" — had one of the longest uninterrupted production runs in U.S. currency history, spanning over two decades and thirteen signature combinations without a change in series designation. That persistence was bureaucratic habit as much as anything else: the Treasury simply continued issuing under the same series date each time a new Register or Treasurer took office, rather than authorizing a redesign.
George Smillie's engraving work for the BEP during this period was among the finest produced by any government printer of the era. The shift from horizontal to vertical serial number placement mid-series is a minor but reliable diagnostic for collectors sorting signature varieties.
