| Descrizione del dritto | Intaglio-printed portrait of Thomas Jefferson occupies the left panel, set within fine ornamental borders characteristic of late 19th- to early 20th-century American engraving practice. The central field carries a vignette of the U.S. Capitol Building, framed by elaborate guilloche and lathe-work surrounds. Legends across the note identify it as a United States Note and assert its legal tender status, with the issuing authority's obligation inscribed above and below the central vignette. |

The United States Notes — Legal Tender Notes in Treasury parlance — were a Civil War creation that outlasted their emergency origins by decades. Congress established them in 1862 to fund Union expenditures without relying on coin, and despite repeated political attempts to retire the series entirely, a standing requirement to maintain $346,681,016 in Legal Tender Notes in circulation kept them alive well into the twentieth century. That figure was not arbitrary; it was the amount outstanding when the Legal Tender Act's circulation cap was finally fixed by statute.
The long production window for P#154 — over four decades — means multiple signature combinations exist, and these determine value far more than condition for most collectors. The Speelman-White pairing from the final years of the series is the most common; earlier combinations command significant premiums.
