In 1915 new series of notes were released whose purpose was to end the National Currency system. National banks were given the option to surrender their circulating currency and in return they would receive an equal amount of Federal Reserve Bank Notes. (National Currency is still printed on the notes). The Feds thought this would drive out National currency but they overestimated the attractiveness of this plan. The National banks were still profiting from their issuance and consequently, few banks exchanged their currency. Because of the limited take-up, series 1915 Federal Reserve Bank Notes are uncommon and can be pricey.
