About This Series

The Greysheet Catalog (GSID) of the Demand Notes series of Large Size Notes in the U.S. Currency contains 22 distinct entries with CPG® values between $1,900.00 and $474,000.00.
Demand notes were originally issued in 1861 as the Civil War escalated and became the earliest form of US paper currency that Americans are used to using today. The term "greenback" which many in the numismatic community and the mainstream public use to describe United States paper money, originated with the demand notes of 1861. Congress authorized a total of $60 million to be issued in denominations of $5, $10, and $20, and these were first released in August 1861.
