~~Comment~~ Support – But shouldn't this be called the Sherman-Grant note? That's William Tecumseh Sherman at left, Ulysses S. Grant at right. (The former famously marched to the sea, though not into it; the latter is the one not buried in Grant's Tomb.) Sca (talk) 16:13, 7 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support - Sherman-Grant probably works better. One of the only readily collectible fractional specimen notes.--Godot13 (talk) 20:51, 7 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
