I simply cannot get over the level of detail that was included on the original version of this bill!! I have confirmed that mine has the vertical series 1899 listed, and its signatures are those of Napier and McClung. That means that its version is from 229 to 236 (whatever that means).

All I know is when you look at uncirculated versions online, the amount of detail that went into this bill is simply incredible for the time. I'm glad to have been able to preserve one of them!
