Old Bills Found In Circulation! Post Yours!

@ckrakowski

I withdraw 500 in 10s every month, search them for small heads, but haven't found anything in 2+ years. Used to find one here and there, but not anymore. Always, always getting crisp, unc bills in sequential order... which, I suppose, some collectors would love. Oh, well. The small heads are still out there, in envelopes and drawers and piggy banks, but they don't get redeemed very often, and I'm finding them less and less often.

PS: I withdraw ten-dollar bills because small businesses can't always get them. Most ATMs still dispense 20s and small businesses need the 10s for change. Not that I don't like Jacksons, just trying to keep Hamilton in circulation - big head or small!

PPS: A national bank in my area dispenses 1s, 5s, 10s, 20s, and 100s at its larger ATMs, but not 50s. Shame. I love 50s!

That's a long-lived single there, Skippy Topaz! Must have spent a lot of years in someone's savings jar .

A buddy of mine sent me this image, he got it at when someone spent it at the store he works at.. Not in terrible shape considering how old it is .. does have some staining but always surprises me to see these out and about still in circulation :-)

Not sure if this counts, but on the morning after Hurricane Laura destroyed my town of Lake Charles, LA I ventured out to survey the destruction. In the street I found this 50 folded as shown in first pic. Unfortunately not a US 50!

Neat!
The exchange rate for that note is $1.71, so it's not totally worthless, but still. If only it was really worth $50.

Got this beater 1934 $20 in change right before the pandemic lockdown! Must be worth at least $20

Nice finds. It's been quite a while since I have seen an older-style $20.
