You're right of course, I screwed up. But you still have a list. And they were only dollars - no other denominations. And most of those bags had...
Yes, I agree. But stored correctly is the key here. Do you realize what storage methods were even available in the '30s & '40s ? Coin flips didn't...
Every price guide there is tells you how they arrive at their prices. More than a few of them list only the very highest price ever realized for a...
Rarely, very rarely, do I ever talk in absolutes. I wasn't saying that was the only possible reason. merely that it was the most likely reason...
