Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 11/05/2017 4:52 pm As most of you know, this is the most common of the large size notes by far, with over 2.4 billion (yes!) printed with this signature combination alone. I had the opportunity yesterday, along with 7 other people, to buy a single example from a run of 43 consecutive notes from an original pack. Price was $99, which seemed vary fair. We drew straws, I got #4 pick, and here it is - looks like it was printed yesterday. Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 11/06/2017 4:43 pm Believe it or not, the BEP didn't exceed that print run until the Julian/Snyder 1935-C Silver Certificates, printed in 1945/46. Report this Post to the Staff
