Forgive me if there are other threads on the same subject, but I haven't seen one in a while...

If anyone has found any older bills that they would like to share, please do so! I suppose the requirements for "older" is pre-1996...

Today, I found a Series 1988-A $1, from the San Fran FRN, and the week before that I picked up a Series 1985 dollar, block K-G. It could grade VF-EF if it wasn't for being ripped in half and taped together! It grades "Fair"....

Looking forward to the finds!

My oldest was a 1950 star note $10 in VG. Not great, but I got it in change at a bar while in college and managed to keep it so that's definitely something.

I always ask for $2's at the bank and it is very common to get 1976.

In the last batch of $2's that I picked up I had a 1953 United States Note (red seal)!

Last week I found a 1963b $1.

Awesome finds! There seem to be a lot of the old Barr notes being found lately... Probably people having to spend their long-held hoards... I've never been lucky enough to find one myself, though...

Anyway, here's a pic of the 1985 note I found last week, more or less just to prove to myself that I actually know how to post pics...





My picture taking skills probably need (a lot) more improvement...

are 1999 or 1988 $1 worth keeping in any condition?

also I have never search bills from my bank. any technique you guys use? any different from coin hunting? I figure ill just walk in and ask for $50 in $1. I just hope they dont get mad. one would assume that they have taped stacks?

I found this one today. I was so excited I had to rush home to show you. It's my first and only one and it's in great shape too!

I don't see anything that would demand a premium. Value = $1.00
