Paper Money Collecting - Images Of US Presidents on US Paper Money

Paper Money Collecting has now become a daily activity in my life. When I go into a book store or library I find myself looking for books, magazines etc on the topic. I've also been learning more about taking good pictures, scans etc. as well as searching for images that I can post on the blog without infringing on copyrights.

Well the search has paid off, and now I can bring you the faces of some US Presidents whose portraits are on the front (obverse) side of different US banknotes.

I also want to say a special thank you to all the new friends I've started making in connection with my new hobby, collecting paper money, your help and support is appreciated and I will be sharing the contributions you've all made in subsequent posts.
