If looking for a dollar struck on a quarter planchet, I would search dollar rolls, logic being as follows. Quarter planchets were fed into a...
OK, looking to help a friend make some extra money selling UV Pen Lights for detecting counterfeit currency. I figure the best place to start is...
I forgot two other honorable mentions from this last bundle. Serial number B33552200A and another minor overprint shift (this one is...
OK, most bundles I get are uneventful. Either they are solid brand new bundles, or they are circulated with the usual 1976 UNC's sprinkled...
I can't believe this is the first time I noticed this post. First and foremost, the only counterfeit test I recommend is a UV light. The $50...
I'm not surprised about Heritage. The note had a "reputable" TPG holder. Why would the person recieving it or listing it look any further or...
Personally, in those situations, I take a moment to verify the authenticity of the money that I was handed. If you are handed a counterfeit note,...

Simplest method is to look at the serial number. First clue is that the number is higher than 96000000 Second clue is that the serial number...
This is the fourth one I've found in the past couple months. None of them seemed to have been cut up recently, but this is getting frustrating to...
I read in another thread (the one about tape residue) that someone placed a US note in acetone for 24 hours and did not see any fading of the ink...
¡Feliz Cumpleaños!
I love those 1985. they would definitely be an upgrade in my collection.
Actually, I've been finding it more difficult to find the lower denomination notes ($5, $10, $20) from prior to 1996.
