Title:
Richard Nixon Signed U.S. Silver Certificate – PSA/DNA GEM MT 10 Auto Grade (Cert #85623337)

Description:
Offered here is a highly unique and visually striking collectible: a Series 1957 B $1 Silver Certificate signed by 37th U.S. President Richard Nixon. The autograph is boldly executed in blue ink on the reverse (green) side of the note, prominently across the Great Seal and pyramid design. Above Nixon’s signature, an unknown hand has inscribed “1 pot$” in purple ink, adding a curious element of period personalization.

Encapsulated and authenticated by PSA/DNA, this specimen has received a GEM MT 10 grade for the autograph alone—indicating flawless signature quality. The bill itself bears the serial number I 98706725 G and remains in exceptional condition with crisp edges, vibrant print, and strong paper integrity, all preserved in PSA’s secure tamper-evident holder.

Historical Context:
Richard Nixon (1913–1994) served as Vice President under Dwight D. Eisenhower from 1953–1961 and as President from 1969–1974. His administration is remembered for key moments in Cold War diplomacy, including the historic opening to China and détente with the Soviet Union. Domestically, he oversaw the creation of the EPA and the end of the draft—but his legacy remains most shaped by the Watergate scandal, which led to his resignation in 1974, the first and only U.S. president to do so.

This silver certificate—a form of paper currency once redeemable for physical silver—was still in circulation during Nixon’s presidency. That connection adds historical richness to the artifact, symbolizing both the waning days of the silver standard and Nixon’s turbulent time in office. Currency-signed pieces by Nixon are scarce, especially with such well-preserved autographs.
