No problem. I of course haven't been able to get anything lately. I keep being outbid, or can't find what I want. Sooner or lateer I'm going become one of them there strap searchers just to be able to look for something.

 

Sometimes I find it easier to just buy the item instead of bidding. And of course browsing stores are the best, the selection may be limited but I find it more focused.

 

FINALLY...





This next note is tiny, about the size of a smaller plate block of stamps...

Another note trickles in...

 

Picked up some things, but they're not money.

Books.



Not exactly sure how to categorize this but I guess its considered paper money.

 

I was reading this old book called Lincoln; Master of men, and in the book it had an interesting passage where Lincoln had some of these newly printed notes and remarked to someone, (I do not remember if it was a cabinet member or a secretary) how much labor it would be for Spinner to sign all those notes and what a unique signature it was.
Lincoln did not seem to understand that the signature was printed and not signed, this was because the presses that printed the notes actually made in impression into the paper, unlike most printed materials that one could easily see wether the signature was printed or actually handwritten.

 

Got these two among others, going to keep one and sell the other, not sure which yet though...

 

Very interesting

 

Picked up a few beat up world notes for cheap.


1910 Germany 1000 Reichsbantnote




1908 Germany 100 Mark

 

It's these little pieces of information that make all the difference when collecting and purchasing an item. A+ to you my friend!

 

Got in a pantload of notes yesterday, will let them dribble out one at a time to prolong the ecstasy... my, that sounded a little gay...

 

Really like the symbolism here. Two allegorical ladies, having set down the arms of war and taken up manufacturing and farming, issued by Germany in 1908. My how things would change...

Nice addition mec.... it take a pantload of cash to purchase that gold certificate?

 

Would you believe me if I told you it was just a little over twice face value? SHAPOW! It was such a good deal I didn't even talk anywhere about it before it arrived in my hands, I was worried I'd jinx the damn thing...

 

sounds like you got a great deal was it an ebay transaction?my us paper money books that several years old list it at $625 in vg 8.do you know how many of that fr. number are known?
