Of course. I plan on making cookies soon since it's around Christmas and you bet I'm gonna give some to the tellers, as they've given me just about everything you can imagine.

This is going back at least 5 years ago. I posted it, without pics, in this forum, and was told what books to look for. At the time, I didn't collect currency. A teller called me from a local bank I use, and said she just took in 100 OLD $10 dollar bills and would I be interested. Since I didn't know much about paper, I didn't know what to expect. It seems, and older gentleman put these away in a "secret" place in the home, because he didn't trust banks. I'm guessing he went through the Depression. Not until the house was torn down, did the family find these. Ten are the 1928, "redeemable in gold clause", 10 are the Series 1950, and the rest are Series 1934 A-D. Just about all are from the Cleveland district. There was just one modern note, probably to make an even $1000. I've just been holding on to them ever since.  |

Are those old 10 dollar bills also uncirculated?

Not uncirculated CoinCollector. I would call them all Fine to Very Fine, with several Extremely Fine. They probably haven't seen circulation for 50+ years.

If any of those bills have consecutive serial numbers, then they probably are uncirculated, but may have sustained PMD due to improper storage, all of my bills are in various serial number ranges, and I wouldn't be surprised if the 1963As are also consecutive. I'm just wondering, what would the value of all these bills be? |

mfhorn- nice find, that's definitely worth the $1,000 to keep, especially with the 1928 gold certificates.

Coincollector; There are two consecutive 1950 notes. The don't have any folds, but show a bit of wear. Probably like you said; the way they were stored. I started collecting the consecutive older '28 & '34's in various denominations. Also the large size, if I can get them at a reasonable price.
The redeemable in gold notes total 25, not 10. I was just counting the ones with the numerical bank district.
Also, there were NO Star notes. With most being from Cleveland, why couldn't I have been a bit more lucky to get a 1928C Star?
