The North Africa series of U.S. Silver Certificates ($1, $5, and $10) were issued to the United States Armed Forces in Europe and North Africa during World War II. They are distinct with a bright yellow treasury seal. If the U.S. forces had been overrun in North Africa, all U.S. currency with the yellow treasury seal would have been demonetized.
