Message:: [QUOTE="RickieB, post: 1805942, member: 2486"]I think this is a fair statement as each collector does have their own perspective of what their collections should contain....that being said, the validity of keeping that note may warrant a second look from the OP. Please understand my statement was from my collecting perspective and my intention was not to turn the notes over for quick cash. As hard as it was to sell...I felt a part of me dissolve when I had to do this. What a sinking feeling that was, however, I had no choice. As far as value goes, one would have to ask themselves if they would be willing to hold, post, sell, ship and pay fees to do for such a note. If it were to remain in their personal collection then by all means do so..that is what collecting is all about. The most valuable lesson I learned was that collecting was an Educational venture that brought about stimulating conversation, new friends with similar interests and the joy of holding a part of Americana that has been lost over time. So no matter your preference, no matter your budget, if it appeals to you then all possibilities exist to expand, learn and collect. Kind regards,[/QUOTE]
