Federal Reserve Bank Notes


Federal Reserve Bank Notes were issued as a result of the creation of the Federal Reserve System by Congress in 1913. Small Sized Federal Reserve Bank Notes were only issued for Series 1929.

These notes were payable by the issuing Federal Reserve Bank only and not by the United States Government.

The Federal Reserve System divides the United States into 12 different regions. The currency of each of these regions is supplied by a Federal Reserve Bank assigned to that region.

The following chart lists the Federal Reserve Branches with a corresponding Letter (from 1 - 12) and Number (from A - L). These letters and numbers appear on the face of all Federal Reserve Bank Notes.
