<p>[QUOTE=&quot;funkee, post: 1932429, member: 37925&quot;]A teller told me of a 1928 $500 gold certificate that came into his branch one day. The lady came in to get change for it. He wanted to buy it from her, but didn&#039;t have $500 on him to do so. He could not simply take it from the drawer and pay it back later, or he would get fired.</p><p><br /></p><p>He asked the lady to come back after his lunch hour. He came back with enough money to buy it, but she never returned. She probably realized it was worth a lot more than face value.</p><p><br /></p><p>The teller described it as AU. Not being a currency collector, I figure it was probably high-VF. Probably a $12 - $15,000 note.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
