being new at this i did see a posting about these  C/I 1$ bill ,
I have  recieved  one and went looking for info on it  and did look it up in the  2005 Charlton paper money  book .
I did have abit of a challenge in finding the signatures and was about to give up when I relized  maybe under thsignatures in different year as i could not find it under1954  but found the signatures under 1973  this was making no sense to me  but when i did find everything I thought  I was looking for it said it is a

Vel

The Prefixe you have runs between the A/I-D/I range, (this includes prefixes A/I, B/I, C/I, D/I). Each prefixe has 10,000,000 notes printed within it, giving you 40,000,000 notes printed.

Sorry to say, but your note sounds like a common note, unless there is an error on it.

If you want to see examples of errors, go here, it's pretty cool:

http://www.geocities.com/bnknotes/index.html

Can you describe the note to the best of your ability? (creases, rips, tape or glue, ink smears, writing, holes, etc.)

I would like to acquire this note if it's not in a good condition but still intact...

Anyways give me the pic at neon[dot]zidane[at]gmail[dot]com
