Created under the Federal Reserve Act of 1913, these notes were authorized for regional Federal Reserve Banks and backed by government securities. Unlike standard Federal Reserve Notes, Federal Reserve Bank Notes carry specific bank titles and distinct serial formats. They circulated as legal tender and helped ease currency needs during a period of heavy wartime demand.

All 1918 $1 Federal Reserve Bank Notes in this listing are offered in About Uncirculated condition. Notes graded AU typically retain strong color and a crisp look at first glance, with minor signs of handling that may include light folds, small bends, and/or faint wrinkles.
