It's a 1963 series $2. Don't know why, but having a hard time getting the size right. I try and get as close to 250kb but still can't seem to get the size right. I'm really working on collecting star notes and silver certificates for my collection right now. Having a good time doing it. I have a really good place here just north of Columbus called Allen's, that has a decent selection of paper money. Their grader is very conservative and I get great notes for a great price.
Nice. I have never found myself as the kind of person that likes to buy and deal with paper money although I have a few.
CT automatically reduces the size of your file no matter what you do to the size. Instead, try uploading the images to Photobucket, Picasaweb, Flickr or some other image bank, then get the images link to that file, go to 'manage attachments' and place the link in the URL box, click upload and the image you link to will appear as a thumbnail in your post. Click on that thumbnail and the image will open over the browser in the files true size. Hope that helps.
