    i am trying to get all small sized notes from 1928-present in all denominations $100 or less(including star notes) from chicago. any higher denomination note is way out of my ball park. so these notes i have posted are all ones i didnt have:cool: i have to figure out how many notes exactly i need to get but i have 88 so far and i am sure there are hundreds more i need. its a long road but one i am gonna to try to finish. some notes i may never find. thanks for checking them out:thumb:

    Still, though... 88 notes is pretty impressive, just from one Reserve Bank. I have only a few.... 3 to be exact. I actually think you need all three of mine...:cool:

    Great Collection, UrbanChemist. It's always cool to see the different colored seals- light green on your notes.

    Now that is a goal I can understand! While lofty, difficult and very expensive, I say go for it!
    Great additions to the collection! Keep one thing in mind during your search, when an opportunity comes your way for a particulr note and that note is extremely difficult to find, then and only then settle for a lower quality than the majority of your notes.
    As an example, you will find that early star notes are difficult and expensive...for me, the collection will contain nothing below high AU notes with some minor exceptions. The majority are no less than "New 62"

    Keep up the good work! It is a long journey and the less common notes will start to show themselves as you move forward!

    Beyt of Luck!!
