Treasury Note

Treasury Notes are a type of representative money issued before the War by the United States Department of the Treasury under authority of the Legal Tender Act of July 14, 1890. They are miscellaneous items in the Fallout 76 update Wastelanders.

Characteristics
A ten bullion note signed by former Register of the Treasury W. J. Rosecrans and former Treasurer of the United States J. N. Huston with the last name of Union General George Henry Thomas. The note is of a Series 1890 design which features an extremely ornate design on the back. The intent of this was to make counterfeiting much more difficult, but opponents of the design argued that the extensive detail would make it more difficult to distinguish between genuine and counterfeit notes. Consequently, the reverse designs were simplified on the Series 1891 Treasury Notes issued the following year.

Uses
Treasury Notes can be exchanged at a gold press machine for 10 gold bullion each. Up to 20 notes may be exchanged every 20 hours, with the clock resetting after the first exchange of the new 20-hour period.

Locations
After the completion of the Wastelanders main questline, Treasury Notes are rewarded for completing events and daily Wastelanders quests.

Behind the scenes
The Treasury Note is loosely based on the real-world Series 1890 Treasury Note, signed by Register of the Treasury William Rosecrans and Treasurer of the United States James N. Huston with the last name of Union General George Henry Thomas. The Note's design features an extremely ornate design on the back. The intent of this was to make counterfeiting much more difficult, but opponents of the design argued that the extensive detail would make it more difficult to distinguish between genuine and counterfeit notes. Consequently, the reverse designs were simplified on the Series 1891 Treasury Notes issued the following year.


 * Notable differences between the in-game and real-world versions:
 * The Treasury Note is one that doesn't actually exist in real life. It is instead a mix of the Series 1890 $5 and $10 notes (see gallery below), with a unique and fictional representation of The Capitol Building rather than General Philip Sheridan as depicted on the real-life version
 * The real-world Treasury Note specifies that the owner can be paid in "Ten Dollars in coin." Instead, any mention of dollar or coins is replaced with "Bullion" in Algerian typeface.
