1917 $1 Legal Tender, Signatures of Speelman & White, FR39 Grades. 1917 $1 Legal Tender, Signatures of Elliott & Burke, FR37. This 1917 $1 note is the last large-sized legal tender bank note ever issued. It's referred to as a "Horseblanket Note," due to their large size. The obverse features Washington and a vignette of Columbus sighting America. The reverse shows a "sawhorse" design. Add in the bright red seal and serial numbers and you've got a miniature work of art. The nicest one we have ever been able to bring to auction. These notes are usually found in xf and lower. Finding higher grade ones can be a challenge.
