Description: This 1869 $2 Legal Tender Note, often referred to as the "Rainbow Note," is a standout piece due to its vivid and colorful design that utilized blue, green, and red inks for a striking visual effect. A one-year type, this Fr. 42 example is part of the Series of 1869, known for its ornate printing and the depiction of prominent figures from American history, here featuring Thomas Jefferson on the obverse. This note reflects moderate circulation with evident folds and creases, yet retains impressive eye appeal. The multicolored inks on the obverse, with Jefferson's portrait and the intricate depiction of the Capitol, remain vibrant. The serial numbers and Treasury seal, printed in red, stand out against the ornate background. On the reverse, the complex green scrollwork and large denomination numerals stay remarkably clear, maintaining their bold presence despite the moderate handling. The paper quality holds up well, preserving the note's overall integrity and collectible value.
