U.S. One Dollar Silver Certificate - Series 1935A - Serial # A24177863C - Submitted by Paul Roales on 3/12/09.
Paul wrote... "Short snorter signed by 16 men. I have only been able to identify one signature. The note also contains the
notation "Jan. (or June) 8, 1943 accra". I assume accra is Accra, Ghana, which was a stopping point during World War
II on the South Atlantic Route for supplies and men heading for Egypt, Iran, and India. The one signature I did identify is
"Allah Yar Saleh" over the "O" in "ONE". During WW2 he was a low level Iranian diplomat, but in 1952-53 he was the
Iranian Ambassador to the United States."
