NOTABLE ABOUT THIS NOTE

As Treasurer of the United States, Dorothy Andrews Kabis’ signature appears on the notes of this series. Following her appointment, Kabis married and changed her name from Dorothy Andrews Elston. This name and signature change led to a change in the currency series designation from 1969 to 1969A. She remains the first and only Treasurer to change their name while in office.
