I was dumping coins at the coin counter today and at the end I decided to ask if there was anything old or interesting they wanted to get rid of. Needless to say I about had a heart attack when he pulled this sucker out! Never in a million years did I expect to pull a horse blanket from the bank!
Has anyone else here got one similar before? I figure that the size of the note makes it less likely to happen vs a normal silver certificate.
No, I have never found a large-sized note in circulation, ever. I think a Series 1934 $5 is the earliest I've ever gotten. It's pretty remarkable to see something like that turn up in the wild.
