Whoa NOS! Is that a total for this year or just recently? I thought I did alot. Found this '76 G* today
That is April-July of this year. I normally don't go through so many but something came up that required me to do so. Nice find on the star.
here are some of my finds over the year. the first note is the most recent. the dallas notes are from a print run of only 640,000 :kewl:
Couldn't even hold the beaming smile down let alone the poker face as these were counted out. 3 X 1953, 53B, 63, 28D, 76 G* and 74 ohio $100
i picked this up working on a saturday about a year ago. except for the staple holes and a few wrinkles its a sweet note
My My, Use to search straps all the time when my wife was a teller, daily I would pick up 200-300 singles or a strap of twos and go through them. I did it with pennies too until I finished my lincoln set and sold it. I never found anything good. A few star notes. I did get a UNC-CON strap of 1976 twos once and went through it, sold it for a lil over face.
i need to get back into searching straps i ride my bike 10 miles a day over lunch .. my work lunch hour was when i used to search my straps.... maybe once this contest is over (and i collect my winnings lol) i WILL get back into my straps!!!! withdrawal stinks
I tried this the other day and did 100 singles. I got two star notes. It might be addicting - we'll see after try #2.
Within the last year, I search quite a bit of notes but mainly boxes of coins lol. Found all those 20s at the same time, along with another from '63
Finds for last Tuesday. -1976 $2 G* with minor inking error on D of Dollar -1976 $2 Dallas with minor faulty alignment -2003 $2 NY from uncut sheet -1995 $2 Atlanta star -1953A $2 (I love getting these)
TheNoost - if you ever find you have too many red seals Anytime i go to the bank and ask about deuces... they give me the weird look. They dont want them, and dont want to order them.
