Where's George; Have You Even Found A Bill ?

this coming form the person that thinks I owe him something he could Google for himself at the cost of jeopardizing my ability to collect coins or bills?

It is to laugh.

Unless it's extremely over the top (which is prohibited by WG rules), marked bills do not get pulled anywhere along the distribution chain (except maybe by a few misguided tellers - even then the manager usually dumps them back in circulation) - I've received more than half my finds from bank straps.

Bill circulate for a long time - several of my recent hits were in circulation for 4 or even 5 years. My last five hits were entered in 2013, 2011, 2009 (http://www.wheresgeorge.com/b:cb1Y6WGjS&e), 2011, 2011.

Very interesting!

I've actually been a "Georger" for quite a while now, I get a kick out of it.. I've had bills I've stamped found in almost all 50 states and as far away as Zimbabwe, Ecuador, Ethiopia, Ukraine, China, Ireland and the Bahamas... Recently got a notice that a couple of bills of mine were found that I'd entered 9 years ago, so they're still out there

One thing I totally botched was, I had about a hundred Star Notes in an envelope and since they weren't short runs, I decided to open a second Where's George account to only stamp Star Notes... well, whaddaya know.. a few months later I learned about the 2013-B duplicate thingy and went to check my account had already stamped and spent a handful of them.. oh well..

Anyway... here's one I recently got in change from Trader Joe's :-)

I had a hit 2 days back

11.5 years

EMS in Olympia, WA

Hit in Bonita Springs, FL


It's not quite the longest possible distance across the continental US, but it's close...

Just got a notice that one of my bills that I stamped 9 years ago was just found in Venezuela :)

A purple. ALWAYS nice!
