Now that you mention it, it was in a stack of mixed denomination bills, about 30 singles and the balance a mix of 5's, 10's and 20's totalling.....$166!
But wait....there's more! Only three notes had anything going on, and here are the other two.
An almost radar:
And, get out the Holy Water....
If the date I received these had any 6's in it I'd REALLY think there was something REALLY strange going on! But no, April 3, 2010.
Nonetheless, it's a very strange coincidence. I do some theater with the local Dinner Theatre, and this was my portion of the tip money from our guests for our awesome performances during the course of a 6 weekend run of "The Odd Couple". I can't imagine this thing floating around out the for 6 years without anyone thinking "Hey, this is a freaky bill! I think I'll hold onto it."
I like consecutives, and hold onto them whenever I come across them. I've got several 3 note consecutives, and several 2 note, in various denominations. All CU, but none with anything special about the serials though.
In fact, I recently needed a 1934A $100 note for my album (I like series runs as well) and stumbled on two consecutive CU's in separate auctions from the seller and got them for $122.50 each. I got lucky on that one!
I'm sure there are lots of "Oh so close" notes people are hanging onto, just like this. I think it would make for an interesting topic!
