Description

This is a 1934A series ten-dollar bill, specifically a 'Hawaii' overprint note. These notes were issued during World War II following the attack on Pearl Harbor as an emergency measure. In the event that Hawaii was captured by enemy forces, these distinctively marked notes could be declared worthless, thus preventing the enemy from benefiting from captured U.S. currency. These notes are easily identifiable by the brown 'HAWAII' overprint on both the front and back, as well as the brown Treasury Seal and serial numbers. The series 1934A indicates The bill features a portrait of Alexander Hamilton, the first Secretary of the Treasury, and the Lincoln Memorial on the reverse. These 'Hawaii' notes are popular among collectors due to their historical significance and unique design.
