<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kaparthy, post: 3373946, member: 57463&quot;]Ignore the nay-sayers. Numismatics appeals to people with poor social skills. So, they will tell you that you have junk to make themselves feel that their trash is treasure.&nbsp; It is all trash. It is all treasure.&nbsp; It depends on what you find in it for yourself.</p><p><br /></p><p>As MPCUSA said, it is a good poker hand and people play &quot;Liar&#039;s Poker&quot; with dollar bills.&nbsp; We did that one night at our coin club with the prizes just being the usual door prizes, but it was nice to see the arrays that people found. (The rules were you had to find in circulation since the previous meeting.)</p><p><br /></p><p>Every serial number is unique. Start with that.</p><p>We have a long thread of 11 pages on Circulation Finds:</p><p><a href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/different-circulation-finds.272056/page-11" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/different-circulation-finds.272056/page-11">https://www.cointalk.com/threads/different-circulation-finds.272056/page-11</a></p><p><br /></p><p>People go ape over 07041776 or 04071776 and so on. But there is story, I think that it was Srinivas Ramanujan and G. H. Hardy, a couple of mathematicians, and I am sorry not to know it exactly but it was like &quot;I have your train ticket old man... Hmmm... not a very interesting number.&quot;&nbsp; &quot;Oh, but of course it is! 4272066!&nbsp; See: 20.66 is the square root of 427.&quot;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>It depends on your relationship with numbers and most people here can count money but are basically innumerate. They just do not see the patterns in numbers or the numbers in patterns.</p><p><br /></p><p>Keep the note. Look for others. They are out there.</p><p>[MEDIA=youtube]TaAftRgptkQ[/MEDIA]</p><p>from</p><p>[MEDIA=youtube]vFRTgr7MfWw[/MEDIA]</p><p><br /></p><p>Mike M.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
