I expect that they will not be worth much. These notes are difficult to photograph, at least for me. What do y'all think? Series of 1923 on the large note below Last edited by Catbert; 01-04-2009 at 05:38 PM.   01-04-2009, 07:01 PM   #2 (permalink) RickieB Expert Plunger Sniper     Join Date: Mar 2005 Location: United States Posts: 6,425 My Mood: Blog Entries: 2 Catbert... you are correct on the first three the $1 notes are "fine at best" and not worth too much...the red seal $2 looks XF to me maybe a low AU and will have a little value.......drum roll please.......... but the last note, well it seems that you have been holding out on us LOL...you are funny! If you did own that..well we would be calling you Mr. Catbert!! LOL...

That's a large-size note, which I believe some people call a "horse blanket" And Catbert, I'm a little worried about that last note... I may have to make a phone call to the Secret Service. lol   01-04-2009, 09:03 PM   #5 (permalink) Catbert .     Join Date: Feb 2008 Posts: 1,457 My Mood: I don't understand why y'all doubt me regarding the fourth note. It is a little something that has been long forgotten in the back of the safe. When the cleaning lady was dusting (the safe happened to be open), she found it and nearly dropped it into her mop bucket. Good thing I was able to do a full out lunge to save the day. Whew, that was a relief. Anyway, I appreciate the feedback on the first three and I don't appreciate the feedback on my last.   01-04-2009, 09:07 PM   #6 (permalink) rzage What Goes Around Comes A     Join Date: Apr 2008 Location: Chicago Posts: 5,447 My Mood: Quote: Originally Posted by Catbert I don't understand why y'all doubt me regarding the fourth note.
