can anyone recommend a good online source for finding the value of currency? I collect gold and silver coins, but know nothing bout notes. I have several large notes .... a local dealer said he'd give me $60 for the lot. I dont believe him. for example- 1917 two dollar red seal XF 20 dollar blue seal VF 1899 one dollar blue seal VF I also have many circulated silver certificates, inlcuding $50's. are these only worth face value? thanks, jim sorry, no photos at this time.
