Kind of want to go get a couple if my closest bank has some today...

 

Mine won't have any until Friday. i just checked.

 

sounds like each state will have a 00000001 serial number. it would be worth $15,000 to search for them.

 

There are a ton of banks in each state.....

 

Each of the 12 FED districts (assuming notes are printed for all 12 districts) will have a 00000001. They will each probably have more than one.

 

Just got a few today - I like the design. Wonder if there is any premium for them...lol

 

I bet some people on ebay would have no idea what they are...

 

my fathers birthday is tomorrow. I usually get him a card and $100 dollar bill in it. hopefully my bank will have the $100 dollar bills

 

Keep checking three PNC bank branches near where I live but none distributed yet.
I'm going to withdraw $5K then request 50 new $100 bills and search them right in
the bank branch in a secluded SDBX room then redeposit the ones I don't want.
Figure I can do this at several branches.

 

Bank was supposed to get them today, now saying Tuesday

 

Well, there are already hundreds of auctions listing the new notes, many BIN's selling in the $130 range, some higher. Many have multiple notes with consecutive SN's; there's also some error notes listed. Here's a typical auction listing of 10 notes ($1,000 face) for a mere $2,000 minimum bid:

People might know what they are, but that doesn't relieve them of their stupidity in buying these over face.

 

Crazy...wonder if any have sold yet

And they are selling...$280 for 2 sequential, some selling for $134 a piece

 

if it's a repeater or all the same number or ladders why would anyone pay more than face value for them. unless they have star notes for these ??? errors ???

 

exactly. people who pay those crazy amounts right now are just silly. we will be flooded by these notes in no time. there are hundreds of millions to be had eventually.

 

Makes me wish my bank had some already to take advantage of the premiums people are paying! Noting like making $30 from nothing.

 

Haven't people tried going to a main bank and simply asking for one? Mine asked me "Just one?"

 

Mine still apparently hasn't gotten a delivery of them, but a customer brought some in to the bank today, so I got 3 sequential. Nothing special. Now I'm debating whether it is worth it or not to put them on ebay since people are still buying them for more than face.

 

Searched $4500 last week....nada
Will have to make it a routine operation as these start circulating.

 

I've looked for them in >fifteen banks w/o finding them. I suspect to transition to electronic money transfer means less need for currency.
