I'm holding in my hand a US $20 bill the states:

This certifies that there have been depostied in the Treasury of the United States of America Twenty Dollars in GOLD coin payable to the bearer on demand

Alas, the date is 1929

I also have some Confederate money backed by cotton, payable one year after the South wins the war.
