<p>[QUOTE="VistaCruiser69, post: 3727873, member: 107016"]Thanks. Yes, I never think much of anything I come across in general circulation is worth anything special or even over face value. I've collected coins for most of my life and I know lots of older people who collect as well. And I do know that this bill is not a collector condition item. But what I am quite impressed with is that I can find a bill well over 50 years old in general circulation that is in this great of shape. And that's precisely why I'm posting it up on here. Notice I didn't ask "how much is this worth"? That to me is irrelevant. I'm at awe over how old it is and that it is in such great shape for it's age.</p><p> </p><p>I'm guessing someone stuck it in a book or something similar for some reason or the other. Since it's a 63', I'm guessing it is quite possible someone set it aside since it's the year Kennedy was assassinated. Just a guess. I had found a 1963D mint $1 bill in the same pristine shape a few years ago in general circulation and though that whoever saved it, did so because of the same reason. I held onto it for a few months and then spent it. I guess I get tired of just having it sitting in a drawer at home.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
