Posts: 5,748 I found this when I managed a truck stop. http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x...872/280001.jpg ....and it made me do this. http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x...ncingalien.gif If you can't tell by my "lovely" scan it's a 1928A Series. I actually pulled a lot of the 1934 series' in denminatiions from $10-$100 back then. Lots of 1950 series' as well. My wife found the oldest star note for me. A 1950E $5 star note. That's the ONLY thing I miss about managing a truck stop. __________________ A closed mind is no mind at all...   07-22-2007, 06:43 PM   #9 (permalink) vancoin Member     Join Date: Mar 2006 Location: Canada Posts: 87 Quote: Originally Posted by clembo I found this when I managed a truck stop. http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x...872/280001.jpg ....and it made me do this. http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x...ncingalien.gif If you can't tell by my "lovely" scan it's a 1928A Series.
