FEDERAL RESERVE IBANK
OF NEW YORK
Fiscal Agent of the United States
Circular No. 9898
July 18, 1985

TR E A SU R Y TO A U C T IO N $ 9 , 2§0 M IL L IO N O F 2=Y EA R N O TES
To All Banking Institutions, and Others Concerned,
in the Second Federal Reserve District:

The following statement was issued by the Treasury Departm ent:
The Department of the Treasury will auction $9,250 million of 2-year notes to refund $8,369 million of
2-year notes maturing July 31, 1985, and to raise about $875 million new cash. The $8,369 million of maturing
2-year notes are those held by the public, including $496 million currently held by Federal Reserve Banks as
agents for foreign and international monetary authorities.
The $9,250 million is being offered to the public, and any amounts tendered by Federal Reserve Banks as
agents for foreign and international monetary authorities will be added to that amount. Tenders for such
accounts will be accepted at the average price of accepted competitive tenders.
In addition to the public holdings, Government accounts and Federal Reserve Banks, for their own ac­
counts, hold $479 million of the maturing securities that may be refunded by issuing additional amounts of the
new notes at the average price of accepted competitive tenders.
Printed on the reverse side is a table summarizing the highlights of the offering. Copies of the official
offering circular will be furnished upon request directed to our Government Bond Division (Tel. No.
212-791-6619).
Enclosed is a copy of a standard form for your use in submitting tenders for this offering.
This Bank will receive tenders prior to 1:00 p .m ., Eastern Daylight Saving time, Wednesday, July 24,
1985, at the Securities Departm ent of its Head Office and at its Buffalo Branch. A ll competitive tenders,
whether transm itted by mail or by other means, must reach this Bank or its Branch by that time. However,
for investors who wish to submit noncompetitive tenders and who find it more convenient to mail their
tenders than to present them in person, the official offering circular provides that noncom petitive tenders
will be considered timely received if they are mailed to this Bank or its Branch under a postm ark no later
than July 23.
Bidders submitting noncompetitive tenders should realize that it is possible that the average price may
be above par, in which case they would have to pay more than the face value for the securities.
Paym ent with a tender may be made in cash, by check, in Treasury securities m aturing on or before the
issue date of the securities being purchased, by a charge to an institution’s reserve account at this Bank, or,
in the case o f Treasury Tax and Loan Note O ption Depositaries, by credit to a Treasury Tax and Loan Note
Account. Paym ent by check must be in the form of an official bank check, a Federal funds check (a check
drawn by a depository institution on its Federal Reserve account), or a personal check, which need not be
certified. All checks must be drawn payable to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York; checks endorsed to
this B ank will not be accepted.
