coincollector123 Pillar of the Community United States 850 Posts	Posted 03/13/2012 1:59 pm On an online auction I found that they are trying to sell 1928 $2 Yellow seal dollar bill. I looked online and it says that they never made yellow seal $2 bills. Also are there such things as Brown seal $5 bills (1928 and 1953) Can someone Enlighten me? Report this Post to the Staff

Nickelman Pillar of the Community United States 1397 Posts	Posted 03/13/2012 2:18 pm Unscrupulous people take red seal notes and use chemicals on them to manufacture a yellow seal "error". Brown seals are usually National Currency notes, but also can be Federal Reserve Notes (similar in appearance to Nationals) or Hawaii notes.

Here is the one like what you mentioned. http://reviews.ebay.com/1953-and-19...000001340402 Edited by wquinn 03/13/2012 2:55 pm Report this Post to the Staff

wquinn Pillar of the Community United States 2295 Posts	Posted 03/14/2012 2:21 pm Pretty bad auction site. They don't even show the reverse. Most of those sites have no clue on what they are selling. Here is a real one: http://www.askmehelpdesk.com/coins-...-314603.html Report this Post to the Staff
coincollector123 Pillar of the Community United States 850 Posts	Posted 03/14/2012 6:34 pm Well that is what makes it such a great place to pick stuff up. I have got 2 1996 mint sets (One with W dime) for $12. I picked up 2 1987 mint sets for $8. I picked up proof sets from 1999 to 2007 for about $110. Its a nice auction site but they dont put research into the auctions and they give limited data. Report this Post to the Staff
coincollector123 Pillar of the Community United States 850 Posts	Posted 03/14/2012 6:35 pm I always stay away from gold for these sites though. And its only a mile from my home so I can go there and self check the auctions if I have a question about legality. Report this Post to the Staff
