I've loved Twos since I was a kid. A friendly bank teller saves them for me. I just spend everything ' 76 and up. I do save stars and low numbers. A year ago the teller pulled out three red seals and gave them to me for six bucks. 1953A 1953B 1963 All circulated but still nice for face. Better yet he called me over six months ago and held up an uncut sheet of four 1976 deuces. The teller said a kid came in and cashed them out for eight singles. He sold them to me for eight bucks. Two very lucky days. I have one more gem I'll post and then I'll stop.
Thought you might get a few more replies if it was in this forum rather than the Intro forum Nice looking notes by the way :thumb:
An uncut sheet from circulation is one of those once in a lifetime finds. In the past year, I've pulled out of circulation 7 Barber Halves 6 Standing Liberty Quarters over a dozen red seal $2's 1 Peace Dollar 1 American Silver Eagle I don't think I'll ever see any uncut sheets from circulation. Although I do find plenty that have been poorly cut. Awesome find OP.
Agreed gatzdon. The red seals were a nice surprise but not unheard of. I've found a few notes cut from sheets also. The uncut sheet....it'll probably never happen to me again. The Peace Dollar is a very nice find. Where did you find the Silver Eagle..from a bank? Who in their right mind would cash in an Eagle? I can't imagine accepting one dollar for one.
Yep, got me a 2004 silver eagle from a Chase. The teller said that it wouldn't fit in the coin counter (I felt like saying duhh..., but then he gave me a nice silver eagle, so I figured the teller was cool in my book).
YOU SHOULD FIND THESE RIGHT UP YOUR ALLEY, I READ YOUR THREAD & BEING A NEW CT MEMBER, I FIGURED I WOULD SHARE! This 1953A series started at A45360001A, making this THE NUMBER 0002 NOTE THE SECOND 1953A $2.00 LEGAL TENDER PRODUCED! It would not surprise me one bit if this were traceable back to Mr. Anderson himself! Many # 0002 notes were known to go to the Secretaries of Treasury over the years!ENJOY!
A few years ago I waled into a coin shop and saw a 16-subject sheet of 1976 $2. I figured he would've wanted a lot for it, but I ended up walking out with it for $44. Its got a few wrinkles but it's in nice shape.
