DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9862 Posts	Posted 01/30/2024 3:27 pm Nice find! Good to see they did the right thing. Could not have been there since 1974 since some of the notes are 1979-1985 issues, so typical of fact checking by the taxpayers reporters.. "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Edited by DBM 01/30/2024 4:13 pm Report this Post to the Staff

walk2dwater Pillar of the Community Canada 2571 Posts	Posted 01/30/2024 5:55 pm Interesting. Whenever I see a stash of cash like that recovered I always wish I could check the serial number prefixes myself. One of the $2.00 pictured is an RZ prefix & it makes me wonder if there's any RS prefixes (test notes) or ABX (replacements) or even the odd regular *RA prefix. They're in a bit rough shape but still would be worth more than FV (if there was a tough prefix). And then I want to know what the first duct cleaning service were doing (why they didn't discover the stash)? (Also: not all the notes are 1974's. $100 is 1975, the $20 & the one $5.00 pictured appear to be 1979 with serials on the back).
