<p>[QUOTE="johnny54321, post: 588204, member: 13342"]good points guys. I was semi-joking with my reasoning. Obviously, if I wanted to put away cash, the best way to do it is just that "put away cash" without paying the premium. Like Rickie said, I pay over face and take a 15% hit by doing it this way, so buying this as an investment isn't all that smart. It's just a heck of a lot more fun, so I'm willing to take the hit for the enjoyment of owning an out-of-circ high denom bill...also a neat conversation piece. It will most likely be handed down to kids or grandkids along with a cool story that would start with something like, "back in the good ole days, people actually payed for things with PAPER..." Most of my heavy collection/investment is in coins, which is where it will stay.</p><p> </p><p>Who knows, maybe this kind of purchase will convert me into a currency note person....:goofer:[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
