1928 B 20 Bill

Nice find! Especially being a '28. You've got about $35 to $40 there, aside from the history. And notice on the upper left that these were redeemable for gold back in the day. If it were only so today.....

Hope this helps,

Steve

Beats my oldest find by 35 years!

That would definitely be something to get excited about! I would love to get one of these in circulation. I don't need one, I already have one, but they will turn up in circulation once in a blue moon.

When I was much younger I bought a 1934 $20 for $35 from someone I worked with. Time went on and I came to a place in life, a few years later, where I really needed money, and was forced to spend it. I did not collect them then, and had bought it just because it was cool.

The person I was with at the time grabbed it from me and gave me another twenty which I spent. So, you could say I "sold" it for twenty dollars. I'm glad I'm a lot older and a little wiser now!

That could be the case, or someone that simply doesn't realise that it has more value than twenty dollars. In either case you were the "lucky" recipient.
