This note represents the first generation of small-size U.S. currency introduced in 1929.

Paper: 75% cotton / 25% linen, embedded red and blue security fibers

Gold Clause: The 1928 series was the first small-size note series following the 1929 currency redesign. These notes carry the gold redemption clause, stating they are "Redeemable in Gold on Demand at the United States Treasury, or in Gold or Lawful Money at any Federal Reserve Bank."

Series 1928A represents a minor design and signature change from the initial 1928 series.
Withdrawal: These gold clause notes were withdrawn from circulation in 1933 following the U.S. abandonment of the gold standard for domestic transactions under Executive Order 6102.
