Yes, the platinum group metals definitely have a much more robust set of industrial uses compared to gold. I could almost imagine the gold price...
My opinion, as far as value: The small size notes are all spenders, especially the $20 and $10. Given the condition, the $1 silvers are not worth...
I think that there were times that CGA gave accurate grades, and times that they did not. So the assigned grade can't be counted on. It depends on...
I see about $4 in face value of silver coins in the first, and about $5 in the second, so $9 total. A quick lookup suggests that silver sells for...
Condition will probably be less important for the ND note. I suspect that there are not many of these, and so National collectors will take what...
Cool notes. I don't know anything about Grafton specifically, but North Dakota is probably a good state as far as value, as there are probably not...
Nice! I collect the nickel coins from Canada, so both the 1999 and 2000 sets are on my list (circulation coins only), but so far I just have a...
It is taxed as a capital gain, and must be classified as a 'collectible' so the tax rate may be higher than for other capital gains.
Unfortunately, all those look fake to me. Red pen signatures are not historically correct.
Singles (I assume you meant $1) do not have the security strip, and I don't think $2 notes do either. But $5 and up do for sure.
Get a current $5 note, and hold it up to the light. At the position where the white part is in this note, you should see a thread that says 'USA -...
I think it is just damaged, and not an error at all. The white part is exactly where the security strip normally is, maybe this has been pulled...
I did see the display once, though I did not take a picture of it. The impression I remember is that most of the notes looked fairly worn, and...
No, sodium thiosulfate does contain sulfur, but it is completely different chemically. Sulfur chemistry names can be pretty confusing. There is a...
I don't know how it would technically grade, but I wouldn't be so quick to give up on it, just because it has issues. The design is cool, I...
Yes, I 'stack' polonium this way for my chemical element collection. My retail price is right about $1 billion per gram. The usual amount, in an...
That looks much better, and genuine in my eyes. Now I see the elaborate design of the 'ONE'.(I know very little about Indiana specifically, so I...
Cool collection! I am a little suspicious of the first two. The unsigned obsolete notes would be called remainders. The fact that the color is...
I have found a handful (5-10) from circulation, but I have not seen one for several years. They are fun to find, they look just a bit different if...
Type set of USA large size $1000 notes. But I would probably start with the first 2 posts on this thread: $20 Saint, 1909-S VDB, 1955-DD. Once I...
Separate names with a comma.
