[QUOTE="dave_in_delaware, post: 2587771, member: 82414"]Between the 9 different banks I've been visiting over the last few months, I've accumulated 601 $2 bills. Some are in very nice, crisp, "new" condition with no writing, rips, tears, or creases. Some are in very horrible condition, extremely worn, hard creases, written on with ink, stamped with tracking info (I especially hate that), or previously ripped and taped back together. I have 2 * notes. I have some 1995 and 2003 with the B at the end of the SN. I have a few from different years that have consecutive SN's (keeping those of course). I wanted to ask the collective here: do you only keep the nice bills, and spend the crappy looking ones? Or do you keep some of the not-so-nice ones in case they end up helping with consecutive SN's you might have already? Do you keep only the lowest SN's? What's your "method to your madness"? I want to spend some of these on other numismatic items. I'm just trying to decide how to decide which ones to spend/keep. Thanks for your input. It's always appreciated.[/QUOTE]
