It'd look hideous. The only state quarter designs that'd work well in 3-inch format are the ones that have far too much detail to begin with for...
Guys, you're in completely the wrong order of magnitude. The "huge" stockpile of dollar coins is barely a drop in the bucket compared to the...
Never seen anything like this.... My first guess would be that it used to be one of those "colorized" bills that somebody sells, with a sticker...
I think it's just heavy inking on the A...this kind of variation isn't too unusual, though this is a rather extreme example. There *are* actual...
I got my 1950D nickel out of circulation, and these have got well over ten times the mintage. They'll turn up. It may take years, if they get...
There's also the "Green Eagle" 1918 $1 FRBN. If you can afford an Educational, then this one won't strain your budget.... Not only the 1928, but...
The BEP and the FRBs strap all their currency in units of 100 notes. Some banks have different standards that they use internally. A friend of...
Probably not, at least not where 2006 $20's are concerned, since both were printed in large quantities. As more denominations get converted to...
To varying extents, yes. In those cases we've at least got official high serials--e.g. the 1934-dated $10 SCs ended at *01980000A, at the end of...
Assuming nothing else goes wrong to delay the timetable *again* again, I'd say a September-October release makes sense. Any later than that and...
Sorry for the slow reply; long weekend, y'know. Jamie already covered one aspect of the topic pretty well: And in addition to that, most of...
Because the old presses used four plates, while the new ones use three. So, yes, your IL..E notes are from the new presses. If you can find some...
Might be difficult without knowing the series of the note.... Let's see here: a serial number in the F42..I range, with a DC-sized back plate...
The Federal Reserve just posted its 2010 new currency budget, which notes that no $2's have been ordered for the 2010 fiscal year, and none are...
Exactly. Fiat in Latin translates roughly to "let it be", "make it so", as in fiat lux "let there be light". So "fiat currency" is something...
What are you all talking about? A collector product? Circulating currency? What? :confused: :confused: As already posted, the "2010" $2's on...
No kidding. With the current printing schedule and inventory of $2 bills, it's quite unlikely that any will be printed during calendar year 2010....
The $500+ were discontinued in 1969 due to lack of demand. The story about money-laundering concerns came along later, in the '80s, when Congress...
This document from last January says that the Kodachrome $100 was then expected to go into circulation in early 2010--but it also says that the...
Not even close. The Fed's gigantic inventory of dollar coins stands at 857 million...but the number of $1 notes in circulation is over 9000...
