Thanks guys. When I saw the bill my first thought was who wrote on this nice old bill. Then I looked closer and realized the signature looked real. Definitely something I'm gonna hang on too!

Yes, definitely!  Also, writing on old dollar bills is one of the reasons I stopped WheresGeorge-ing.. I sold a bill to a Georger once, and in payment, I got a nice VF 1969-D dollar.. Complete with a Where's George stamp :( .. It made me kinda sad, so I stopped Georging.. (Some members are looking for 1966A USN $100 bills to stamp :O )

Awwww isn't that special That's pretty neat. Kinda gives you a little bit of history associated with the note. On to one of my finds: A series 1985 $1, Cleveland, D-B block. It probably grades VF, or so. It's been the weekend of the '80's notes for me. On Friday I found the '88A I mentioned earlier, and then yesterday the '85.

Look up "short snorter", especially if you're a military buff.

That's far from a short snorter biggfredd. Michelle obviously didn't think too highly of it since she apparently spent it. If it were a snorter, Grandma could ask to see it and get a free drink since she couldn't produce it anymore.

One thing I would say here and this is NOT to offend anyone. IF you are holding extras of large denomination older notes consider cashing it in and buying the same note in chcu condition for a slight premium. As an example - do not hold 2 $50's (this applies to $1's as well as other denominations) from the same year series etc. Use the money from one the notes to get something else. Now if you are collecting by Series year, block, run combo's more power to you and best wishes on your project. FWIW -- I cashed out a lot of my circulated, duplicate $1's, $5's etc and picked up somewhat rarer notes with the proceeds. You will be surprised at the amount of face value that you are holding until you go in and start counting and sorting.

Lol, yeah, I completely agree.. I really need to move on to collectible notes.. I'm not joking when I say the most collectible note in my collection is a Gem CU series 2003 dollar..lol..
Although I do have a really good general idea of how much money I'm hoarding.. Probably not a good sign :P lol!
