1934 $500 Federal Reserve Notes AU 50+ (PMG or PCGS)

The Federal Reserve Note Series was not in production for long in the United States before several changes took place in the program. Introduced in two waves in 1914 and 1918, the Federal Reserve Notes were initially offered in the large-sized format before being downsized in the 1920s and then redesigned, for certain denominations, in the 1930s. Among the notes to be redesigned was the $500 Federal Reserve Note. Today, 1934 $500 Federal Reserve Notes are available to you online at Silver.com in certified condition.

Available to ship to you inside individual plastic sleeves!

The face value is $500 (USD).
Graded About Uncirculated 50.

Please keep in mind certification may have come from the PCGS or PMG.

In 1918, the Federal Reserve and Treasury issued massive denominations in the Federal Reserve Note Series to better facilitate the transfer of cash between banks. These notes included $500, $1,000, $5,000, and $10,000 denominations. The notes show signs of wear and tear as a result of handling during bank transfers, but rarely saw the degradation through use that smaller notes experienced.

All of the 1934 $500 Federal Reserve Notes available here are About Uncirculated 50, or better, in terms of condition. The notes are held in plastic sleeves to protect the condition. Each one has modest signs of wear and tear, with one or two heavier fold lines. Though these notes were not broadly circulated, remaining specimens are relatively rare as the Treasury and Federal Reserve collected the notes in the 1970s and destroyed the majority of specimens. We are not able to guarantee which grading house label you receive, PCGS or PMG. Your notes are chosen at random after your payment clears.

On the obverse of 1934 $500 Federal Reserve Notes, you will find an effigy of President William McKinley. President McKinley was first elected to office in 1896 as the 25^th President of the United States and won reelection during the General Election of 1900. However, he was assassinated in 1901, just months after winning a second term in office.

The reverse of the 1934 $500 Federal Reserve Note comes with simple depictions of the denomination and the nation of issue. Previously, these notes had featured a detailed vignette on the reverse, but this was replaced in 1934 with the simpler nation of issue and face value markings.

Is my information secure?

We take data security very seriously. When you place an order with silver.com, your information is transmitted with the utmost SSL (secure socket layers) 256-bit protection. We also never have access to your credit/debit card details, as they are securely communicated directly to the payment processor (Authorize.net) and never retained by Silver.com. For this reason, we also don't process credit/debit card orders over the phone, as it is the least secure way to process those transactions.

In addition, all VISA and MasterCard orders undergo an additional step of user authentication - the respective Verified by VISA or MasterCard SecureCode programs. Upon completing checkout with a VISA or MasterCard credit/debit card, you may be promoted for additional details to confirm your identity and protect our customers against credit card fraud.

Finally, the data we do retain in our system, including but not limited to name, address, phone number, and order history, is never shared with or sold to any unrelated third-parties. Please review our Privacy Policy for full details on our data security measures.

Please note, the Silver.com website accepts orders 24/7/365, so you can always lock in live product prices and make purchases outside of business hours.

Do you charge sales tax?

We are required to collect sales tax in certain states. You can review your states sales tax policy here: https://www.silver.com/taxes. You should always consult with a tax adviser for specific advice in your area.

Where does your spot price come from?

We use a live, up-to-the-second spot price feed supplied by Xignite.com, a worldwide leader in the data supply market.

Are your products actually in stock?

Yes. We are one of the few bullion dealers in the industry who only deems products "in stock" when we have them on-hand and ready to ship immediately. In the instance of a presale item, we denote that the product is on presale and the estimated shipping date. While we make the best efforts to hit presale dates, the dates are only estimates, given we cannot control mint production issues and/or carrier dealyes.

Why are multiple prices listed?

We offer a 4% discount to "cash" paying customers - with paper check, bank wire, and bitcoin payments being defined as cash. On many products, we are also able to offer volume discounts to customers purchasing large quantities of the same item. All volume pricing is laid out in the chart on the product's description page, as well as in the cart.

When do I lock in my price?

All prices are locked in at the time of purchase. Credit/debit card, PayPal, BitCoin, Ethereum, and Ripple orders are paid at the time of checkout, while paper check and bank wire orders require a credit/debit card on file to lock in your pricing while we await your payment. Please note, paper check and bank wire orders will NOT result in a charge to your card - we simple maintain the card on file while we await full payment by your selected payment method.

Do you ship internationally?

We currently only ship to addresses in the United States, including APOs.
