FROM TODAY'S FEATURED ARTICLE

The red panda is a mammal native to the eastern Himalayas and southwestern
China. It has dense reddish-brown fur with a black belly and legs, and a ringed
tail. It has a head-to-body length of 51–63.5 cm (20–25 in) and a 28–48.5 cm
(11–19 in) tail, and it weighs between 3.2 and 15 kg (7 and 33 lb). It is
genetically close to raccoons, weasels and skunks. Solitary, largely arboreal
and well adapted to climbing, it inhabits coniferous, temperate broadleaf and
mixed forests, favouring steep slopes with dense bamboo cover close to water
sources. It uses elongated wrist bones ("false thumbs") to grasp bamboo. It
feeds mainly on bamboo shoots and leaves. Red pandas mate in early spring,
giving birth to up to four cubs in summer. On the IUCN Red List as endangered
since 2015, the species is threatened by poaching and deforestation-based
habitat destruction and fragmentation. It is featured in animated movies, video
games and comic books, and is also the namesake of companies and music bands.

Silver certificates are a type of representative money issued between 1878 and
1964 in the United States as part of its circulation of paper currency. They
were produced in response to silver agitation by citizens who were angered by
the Coinage Act of 1873, which had effectively placed the United States on a
gold standard. Since 1968 they have been redeemable only in Federal Reserve
Notes and are thus obsolete, but they remain legal tender at their face value
and hence are still an accepted form of currency. This is a complete set of the
1891 series of large-size silver certificates, designed by the Bureau of
Engraving and Printing and comprising eight denominations from $1 to $1000. Each
banknote bears the signatures of James Fount Tillman (Register of the Treasury)
and Daniel N. Morgan (Treasurer of the United States), and a portrait of a
different individual, identified above.
