    I finally went and bought a bill that I've wanted and knew I couldn't afford in any decent grade,But whe I found this bill even though it was graded a 6 to me this bill was complete and still looks good and the price was right,Under a $100.I know I'm am not collecting bills for investment purposes so I figure why spend 2 to3 hundred on a bill that is graded 25 and up when I can obtain some decent bills for more than half of that price. And living on disability with a rare bone disease I would rather have a bill now than have to wait. Hope you like the bill.Randy

    Thats a very cool note, I don't know much about currency does it follow the same scale as coins?

    Very nice! I have many well circulated notes in my collection and I like them every bit as much as the ChCU notes.

    Awesome....I've got the 1 and 2 in that series, at about the same grade, and would love to get a five like yours.

    Nice!!!

    Randy,
    Beauty is in the eye of the beholder...
    Nice note, the one thing it has over the uncirculated notes is History. The history behind that outweighs any UNC anyday. The love history is what got me into collecting coins and currency, and I'm sure many others. On another note, in this economy, staying within your budget could prove to be very important.
    Hope your health improves.
    John

    I find it beautiful! I love to see the history marks on a bill or coin. Each one tells me a different story, of its handlers. . If only they could talk. Can u imagine some of the stories. In some cases money is the only probable witness.

    Nice example of a "Woodchopper" with honest wear. You made a great decision Randy.
