<p>[QUOTE=&quot;scottishmoney, post: 1932482, member: 12789&quot;]The problem is - the notes are unfamiliar enough to 99% of tellers now so that they are not comfortable taking them in.&nbsp; I know in one branch they did have a vault teller that knew all about currency and she would keep examples of silver certificates, red sealed legal tender notes etc in her teller drawer as training tools.&nbsp; When she got extras of them she would then call me up and sell them for face.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I have ended up with a couple of $500 and three $1000 notes that were at first attempted to be deposited in banks.&nbsp; I know most banks and credit unions around me will not take older notes say over the counter - because like I say the tellers are unfamiliar with them and don&#039;t want to potentially get into trouble for taking something that their manager might object to.&nbsp; Most older stuff coming into one of my credit unions, and a great source of older notes for me are night deposits from local convenience stores.&nbsp; The teller that takes those in is familiar with older notes, and collects some of them for herself.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
