Return it. You'll never like it if you don't like it at first glance, generally speaking.

Wise words in general, not just for note collecting.

Well, as usual, I can't compete with the rest of you - All wonderful notes, btw - but I did manage to pick this guy up along with his consecutive brother. I should have a couple of Obsoletes that you might find more interesting in the next few days.

Got a partial refund on the Gold Cert. Here is a low grade 1914 $20 FRN.. Looking for the 50 and 100 now, they jump in price quite a bit.

I really need to get a scanner going.. LOL These pictures are terrible.

Nice!

And I don't think many folks can compete with the big hitters here, Dave. But... after all, this is not the place for competition.

They're not terrible. But it would be nice to see a little larger photos.

I use the uhh image optimizer and then when I go to upload the image it wont allow me because I have to resize below 200kb's...otherwise it says it is too large

Better pics of the 1906 Gold Certificate. I ended up getting a partial refund so I'm Happier.

CollectorKing, you're right it does look better and evidently the partial refund helped. If you're happy what can we say but Great!

Dave, We're only competitors when it comes to stirring up excitement with our collection and acquisitions; sharing with fellow CCF members. Hey, if it's exciting for you then we want you to share your "stuff" and excitement; so don't hesitate to post. We're all friendly here.

P.S. Don't forget to post those Obsoletes.!!

CollectorKing - how come only a partial refund? Maybe I missed something.

PS - what did you do to solve your upload problem with the Optimizer?

Dave L - just for your info, your '34A $10 was printed between 1934 and 1945, as was tech's $5. This was (as I recall) the longest running sig combo in the history of the small notes.

Hey guys - THanks for the comments. Believe me, I ain't trying to compete - I know better than that! But the eye candy here is often breathtaking! But today I got this little note in from South Carolina. A little worn, but then so am I.

Interesting about those signatures on the 34a notes. I like that kind of info!

I really like that southern note Dave.

Coinfrog- Rather then reurning it completely they offered to give me some of my money back, which made it worth it. Also, I didn't solve the problem with the optimizer but these new images are actual "scans" of the note.
