The Federal Reserve Note was introduced by the United States in 1914. The Federal Reserve Note Series debuted in two releases, with the current denominations still in production today introduced in 1914 and larger notes introduced in 1918. Included in that 1918 Series was the $500 denomination. Now, 1934 $500 Federal Reserve Notes are available to you for purchase online at Silver.com in certified condition.

Note Highlights:

  • Notes ship to you in PMG protective plastic sleeves!
  • Released with the 1934 Series redesign!
  • Left circulation in 1969!
  • Issued a face value of $500 (USD) by the United States.
  • Bears a Grade of Very Fine 30 from the Paper Money Guaranty.

  • The denomination is featured on the reverse of the note.
  • Please keep in mind you may get notes with matching or varied district seals from Federal Reserve banks when buying multiples.

The Federal Reserve Note is the only form of paper money still in production today in the United States. When it was introduced in 1914, the Federal Reserve Note was in circulation alongside United States Notes, Silver Certificates, Gold Certificates, National Bank Notes, and the Federal Reserve Bank Notes. The last of these other paper money programs to exit circulation was the United States Note in 1971.

As for the Federal Reserve Note, the four largest denominations were released in 1918 and later redesigned in 1934. The 1934 Series redesign delivered the designs found on the notes in this listing. These designs replaced the original 1918 Series design with John Marshall on the obverse and a vignette of Desoto discovering the Mississippi River. 

President William McKinley is found on the obverse of the 1934 $500 Federal Reserve Note. This effigy of the 25th President of the United States remained on the notes until the $500 denomination was removed from circulation starting in July 1969.

The denomination of the bill is featured on the reverse side of 1934 $500 Federal Reserve Notes. While many of the smaller denominations were commonly used by Americans for everyday transactions in the 20th century, the $500 note was one rarely held in hand by most Americans. This denomination, along with the other larger denominations, was primarily used in transactions between banks and Federal Reserve branches.

These 1934 $500 Federal Reserve Notes are available inside protective plastic sleeves from the PMG. With Very Fine 30 certifications from the PMG, these notes were found to have only light signs of handling and the potential for light soiling. A VF30 note has somewhere between seven and 10 fold lines, with no more than 10 fold lines present.

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 feel welcome to call us toll free at 1(888) 989-7223 or use our Live Chat feature during normal business hours Monday through Friday, 08:00 a.m. to 06:00 p.m. CST. Alternatively, you can email us at help@silver.com and expect a response within 1 business day.

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.
