<p>[QUOTE="Dabalzak, post: 162820, member: 6611"]I was just talking to an old friend of mine that still lives in Arizona and was telling him about my new hobby of numismatics and was asking him if he had any old coins he's saved over the years. He used to own a check cashing business and I knew he had gone through a lot of cash. He said he had this one five dollar bill he found that looks normal at first glance but has a mint fold across the presidents face, but when you pull gently on the bill it unfolds and is blank inside and makes the bill bigger. He said it is in crisp shape. He has kept it in an envelope and has had it a long time. I can't remember if he got this when he had his business or not. It might be well over 20 years old.

He doesn't do the computer thing and doesn't have a digital camera, but he would try to take pictures with a regular camera and send them to me some time next week and I'll put them in my scanner and post them for you guys to examine if you think its worth the trouble. Thanks for any info on these. Tom[/QUOTE]
