 * Support (drooling) but don't we have an older scan that will need to be delisted? — Crisco 1492 (talk) 12:29, 17 November 2014 (UTC)
 * I don't think so. The existing FP is a T-41 $100, different issue date (which could be seen as a variety), but this one is also a different design type.--Godot13 (talk) 16:41, 17 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Oh, alright. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:49, 18 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Support — Historical EV. Interesting that Washington is on the $50. Sca (talk) 14:19, 17 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Support - As usual, FP material in every respect. Yes, interesting images -- never figured to see slaves on currency, not that they shouldn't be, I guess. I suppose such recognition could be considered both an insult or a compliment, depending. This is a $50 note also -- is this the reverse side of the $50 note depicting Washington?-- Gwillhickers (talk) 20:32, 17 November 2014 (UTC)
 * As Godot says, there were no reverses. That's a different design type. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:50, 18 November 2014 (UTC)

 * Support After hearing that strangely common "but it turned out to be worthless Confederate money!" plot device on television as a kid, after a while I remember thinking "But isn't that worth something for historic value?" - isn't it weird how tropes can stick on long past any reasonable expiration date?

 * Comment - There is writing in pencil in the lower corner of some of the notes. Could this be edited out? - P. S. Burton  (talk)  14:14, 18 November 2014 (UTC)
 * These are objects in a Smithsonian collection. The notations are mostly accession numbers. Removing them would create an image that was not a true representation of the object (as the numbers are likely to never be removed from the originals).-Godot13 (talk) 20:52, 18 November 2014 (UTC)
