    Spend all of them. They're not even good Liar's Poker hands.

    I would probably agree but I kinda like them. Plus so far there are only 3, 4 if you count the stars, with these numbers. But that could be said of all of this series of $2 notes I guess.

    FWIW, in 1976, a grandmother in San Francisco went to the FRB to get a couple of the brand new Bicentennial notes which she kept in an envelope for her grandson. When she finally passed a few years ago, the envelope was given to her grandson. The grandson consigned the crisp new notes to a major auction house. One sold for about $27K and the other sold for $9K. The serial numbers were 00000001 & 00000002. I'll let you guess which one sold for $27K.

    Ack! Not interpolation or curve fitting! If there's one thing I've learned in my engineering class this semester, trying to shoehorn a natural logarithm or something similar into an equation ain't fun.

    And I'd keep all of 'em if it were me. ;)

    I'm with NSP, keep 'em all. At least for now. Put 'em holders and give them as Christmas gifts like I do.

    Then your question, which to throw back, becomes moot. Any response appears to have no influence on your decision. You like them and will keep them, even if it is just kinda. You have answered your own question.
