    The Bison note has already been posted. I'll take that one, please. I've been in the midst of several hundred bison in Custer State Park, South Dakota. An amazing experience I'll never forget. But that note could help keep the memory fresh ;)

    I'd like one of those Tombstone $10 SCs.

    Wow. I didn't know the US had such cool banknote designs.
    It's not a fantasy piece?

    It's 100% real and part of a series of notes issued in 1896 called "Educational Notes." They're quite popular.

    I looked a long, long time to find this 1957 Silver Certificate with an inverted "W" instead of an "M".

    I always check them for the inverted 'W' too.
    No luck so far!

    It took about 6 to 8 months looking at every 1957 MA block note on eBay. Then, I found one. The seller didn't notice the inverted "W" so I got a great deal. It was quite an accomplishment in my collection of small note paper money.

    I have a fairly narrow interest when it comes to paper currency. For me, my favorite thing is national bank notes from my hometown...Eugene, Oregon. Unfortunately, they are typically quite expensive (and so I only own one).

    My dream note would be to own one of the series 1882 $10 notes from the First National Bank of Eugene City (#3458). There are only 2 known examples. Serial 991 is known and is graded a 15 and last sold for $9200 in 2007. The other known example is serial 1460 which is grade a 20 and last sold for $10,925 in 2006. Chances are I will never own either one. There are no known examples of the series 1882 $20.

    Here is the finer of the two known 1882 $10 notes, serial #1460.

    I'm confused (although that is not an uncommon thing in my dotage). I didn't see anything offensive that Markus posted. Why would he get the boot!?

    Why don't you try posting a good photo of the note (front & back) here and let us try and give you a free evaluation.....if not you could Google and type in; "coin shop in (insert your city)". Usually the local coin shop can help you with grading and current prices.

    @nm1560 you got the Hancock part right, but......

    An Fr.1 is a $5 Demand note .

    The note above is a Series 1886 and would be an Fr.240-Fr.244 depending on the signatures on the front.
