This interesting note was issued in an attempt to give the average citizen an opportunity to own government securities. Refunding Certificates were issued with interest accruing at four percent with no definite redemption date stated, providing an inducement to hold the notes and not cash them in. In 1907, the interest was stopped and the value set at $21.30. After that date, most were redeemed and they are quite scarce today. <BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
