    Here they are. I am not much of a paper money collector, so not sure of any value. Star note.jpg 2 dollar.jpg

    That 35 * note should get at least $12-20?+ on eBay. Nice score!

    i keep all star notes and the 1935 star note is a really nice piece the twos are common but since they are the red seal they are worth mabye a dollar or 2 more on ebay then face, it looks like somebody was collecting and mabye died and one of the relatives is using the collection to buy stuff keep your eye out for the person in the shop next time !!

    Very nice. That's not a bad silver certificate. Quite nice shape to have been spent like that.

    Nice catch! I hang on to all star notes. Those deuces would be keepers for me, too.

    Keep the 20o9 Star also. I do not have the new book on currency yet, but keep till you find out more on it. Sometimes, the new stars are sleepers, till more information is available. Good finds.

    Definitely all keepers, IMO. 3 of the $2 LT are '53s, which are slightly more of a challenge to find in circulation than the '63s.
    $12 for two packs of cigarettes in Iowa, huh?

    I've got to quit smoking, or move to another state, or both.
