- Delist; seems reasonable to me, but I am of course open to being persuaded otherwise. J Milburn ( talk) 17:22, 19 November 2013 (UTC)
- Delist - Makes sense, and this scan is of slightly lower resolution anyways. — Crisco 1492 ( talk) 22:22, 19 November 2013 (UTC)
- Delist reasonable. Mattximus ( talk) 00:11, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

- Comment Godot13 has done a commendable job scanning banknotes from the Smithsonian collection. There is a slight difference between the two banknotes, the back of "US Postal Currency 5 cent 1862 1863" was printed by the American Bank Note Company (the ABC in the lower right.)The banknote from the Smithsonian was printed by the US government. See Blake, George Herbert. (1908). United States Paper Money. Pages 32 to 41. [1] -- SWTPC6800 ( talk) 22:25, 24 November 2013 (UTC)

SWTPC6800 is correct. While these are they same type of note, they do represent two slightly different varieties.-

KeepThis is a monogram version, type Fr#: 1230, the other image is a type Fr#: 1231. The Fractional currency (United States) article explains the difference but does not show an example. -- SWTPC6800 ( talk) 02:20, 25 November 2013 (UTC)- Comment I can see your point on this, however the picture does not appear in any article at the moment, and that is a criterion for inclusion as a featured picture, is it not?

- Comment It was in the Postal currency in September 2013 that was merged into Fractional Currency. I will leave it up to Godot13, the major editor of Fractional Currency, to decide if this image should illustrate the American Bank Note Co. monogram. -- SWTPC6800 ( talk) 05:48, 26 November 2013 (UTC)
- Comment - I understand what you are saying, however the Featured List Fractional currency (United States) is built around the Smithsonian Institution's collection. All the notes are from the National Numismatic Collection. It is intended to be a complete type set (not inclusive of all varieties which would number well over 150). The ABNC monogram is represented on some of the other First Issue notes of other denominations.-- Godot13 ( talk) 06:25, 26 November 2013 (UTC)
