hcmusicguy Pillar of the Community United States 814 Posts	Posted 12/05/2017 8:49 pm Took in 200 $1 silver certificates at work today. All series 1935 or 1957, and most in great shape, with numerous in mint condition. Numerous occurrences of sequential numbers, including a couple 3-part sequences. I bought ten of them, including the lone star note, since that's all my budget will allow at this time. Report this Post to the Staff

Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 12/05/2017 8:56 pm OUCH! Bummer, to let that slip away. Either got a very stoopid relative or a kid ripped off his Grandpa. What a shame either way, nice to score but... Report this Post to the Staff
Mark1959 Pillar of the Community 7234 Posts	Posted 12/05/2017 9:17 pm Took in 200 of them - darn, wish you could have got all of them. EWWW like Butch said - stole from his Grandfather! Darn, that is a reality - kids getting into their Dad's or Grand Dad's collection. Report this Post to the Staff

hcmusicguy Pillar of the Community United States 814 Posts	Posted 12/05/2017 10:01 pm Fortunately I don't think that is the case here. They came from a guy who routinely asks for old bills and coins. I have a feeling he was cashing in part of his own collection. These were all common certs that are worth face. He knows better, I'm sure. Report this Post to the Staff

CoinHuntingDrew Pillar of the Community United States 4932 Posts	Posted 12/06/2017 02:39 am At least you saved a few. Good thing SC's don't sell for that much, only a few a pop. Still though, 200 @ $3-5 per could yield a nice $400+ profit. Report this Post to the Staff
