Curious what everyone would value this around? Have an opportunity to pick this Ruth up, but I would like to flip it and use the profits to get some Beatles autos. Thanks in advance!

Can't see the Ruth very well, but I also can't seen anything that screams out forgery, either.

Someone on Net54 picked up on this and commented. Apparently, Ivy Priest was Treasurer from 1953-1961... After Ruth's death.
That's a good catch, the 1935 silver certificates are interesting, the released them in series A-H until 1957 when they switched designs and the way they were printed.. But they used the old plates until they were worn out completely so that's why the sequencing of signatures may not always be chronological. Some 1935 bills were released as late as the 1960s. The 1935E series, according to my book, is generally dated from 1953-1957.
Wow, that really is a nice catch. It's funny too. I'm sure whoever forged that really thought they were being clever. They're thinking, okay since Ruth died in 1948, I'll just use this here 1935 silver certificate, and no one will suspect a thing. Wrong! It just goes to show that some forgers really need to do a better job with their homework.
Another "brilliant" move by a forger who is too lazy to do his homework.
