It definitely is! I got my first taste of Columbia in the mid 90s and still can't believe I haven't moved back that way yet. I'm also planning to return to school at University of SC. I'm hoping to get more graded notes for my collection even if quality beats quantity. I wish you the best of luck and looking forward to welcoming you back soon.  |

Like BadDog, I also picked up one of these last week. At 6.5 million, it has the lowest print run of the entire USN 1928 $2 series, though it is hardly the most expensive:  Edited by Coinfrog

I've never really understood why the 28A, with nearly 9x the printing of the 28E, is usually priced around 4x the 28E price. Since the 28A/28B were depression era notes and the 28E was post WWII, I suppose the currency needs of the respective eras may have significantly influenced the saving of these notes  |

Thanks to all for the kind words as always. BadDog - Thanks for the compliment, but I rather like yours better with its vibrant reds. Your analysis of the '28-A makes sense. The '28-B is just straight-out scarce in high grades. Edited by Coinfrog

A few posts back someone noted the unusual TPG. I picked this up in a dealers junk box a while back. Not currency, but a bubble gum card redeemable for "Gold, Silver, Nickel, and Bonze coins". 5 coupons got you a descriptive catalog detailing how many coupons you needed for each of the coins shown. Don't really know why someone would slab a bubble gum card but its the same TPG. Sure would like to find a copy of the catalog to go with the coupon.   |

Nice Deuce Mr.Frog.
The early $2 USN's had an unusual placement of the series date. By the time the BEP got to the series 1953, they moved the series date to the more traditional area, on the right side near the Secretary's signature.

I don't know, that looks pretty bright to me!  In fact, going through all my $2s, I don't see any that are as intense. Something to do with scanning quality? Edited by Coinfrog
