Ok.
Is there a web site that can help me?

Well since you asked... here is another note from this lot, a lime green $100 from Cleveland that is mid VF. Alas, I already have a Cleveland lime $100 so this one will probably find a new home soon, but it was a decent pull from the lot.



Also have a high serial note from this lot to post tomorrow (why post them all at once when I can keep the drama going?), plus a lot of small Greek fractional and very early 1900's Greek small denoms to post, a nice passel I hope to show. Plus, hope to get a real gem of a US large size note in the next day or two in the mail...

 

Guatemala



Yugoslavia

 

USSR



Phillipines

 

Cambodia




Morgan Silver Dollar

 

Really wish I had more notes to show. But it seems that every time I order notes from online stores they're something out of stock. I'm really starting to get frustrated.

 

I love those Yugoslavia notes, even though they are usually in the bargain bin.

 

Of course I have to ask. I live vicariously through you guys. With a new baby and my wife not working my hobby budget is virtually nil.

 

Okay... first, I like that Yugo 100 there funkee, nice horse statue on the front... always like the Philippines, and I wouldn't buy a Morgan dollar unless I got it from the old timer who pulled it from circulation as a child. Too much Chinese fraud in the coin market now.

And... on to the notes! Today I post another note from that lot (the lot I got really just because I wanted that New York lime $10) but I am keeping this one, a circulated but very high serial number $5 1934-A. For some reason the 1934-A New York district has some very high serials floating out there, I have and have posted a $20 with a triple nine start serial, this note has FOUR leading nines. No such thing as BEP collector sheets back then, the only way to get anything with nines was to get it in circulation. So, here it is... hint for my next note for tomorrow: it's lime (surprise!).

 

And...it's tomorrow already, so time for another note! I have all these Greek notes I haven't uncorked, but I promised a lime note, and I keep my word...

So in further pursuit of a 12 note $10 set of all districts from 1934 in lime green, I just got this Philly - it's taken a long time to get one of these in decent shape, and I am pleased with this one, I real nice solid XF note.

 

Picked up this uncirculated deuce for $26 after shipping. I actually paid $12 and change, since I was able to use my eBay bucks. Very happy with it.




If I had to put a grade, I would go with 64 and that would be conservative. Not a wrinkle or smudge on the note, and the corners are sharp enough to draw blood. The paper wave might be mistaken for handling, but nay. If the centering was better, perhaps as high as 66.

 

what are these ebay bucks everyone speaks of? I have an ebay account and never got those ever and I've purchased way more than I care to admit on there haha. Nice note by the way! I love those 2's!

 

Check it out. Link

 

Thanks! I wish I woulda known that before I went out and spent about a grand on odds and ends I needed and didn't really need lol.

 

Here's my latest large size - an AU $2 Elliot Burke - I am going to add it to my $1 and hopefully, I can get a $5 Woodchopper also with Elliot Burke. Nice feel to the paper in hand... looks good to boot.

 

I just returned from Tokyo...

g1rge, that 1928 deuce looks like it has an SSN on the back. SSNs were first issued around the time these were printed. Pretty neat.

 

Yea, that's what I thought it was too. BTW, wish this one was as crisp as the one you picked up, very nice note!
