<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 860689, member: 19065&quot;]Nice find there Duke... Now that&#039;s more like going an &#039;extra light year&#039;, than &#039;extra mile&#039; but you know what, despite the grade and that nice SN on the $500, I think I&#039;d just resign not to collect $500 FRNs if I couldn&#039;t afford something like this, which I can&#039;t, especially if this is even approaching the kind of dough you have to fork over for notes that off center. It&#039;s distracting with such a narrow margin on the face.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>You know, what you said about hoping to upgrade less by being more choosey up front, I agree with you on certain notes of a certain quality and price range. As for the low priced and more recent series, I&#039;m going to snap them up raw in gem and ChCU without overly special regards to SNs, blocks, that they&#039;re mules or varieties. Once those are in my bag, if I find something nicer, then I&#039;ll upgrade, but there&#039;s a lot of the more recent notes that aren&#039;t too pricey that are in ready supply that I want to be done with so I can concentrate on the tougher ones, monitor their market prices and try to score some nice ones in the more scarce series. I guess it&#039;s part of one&#039;s strategy/approach but I&#039;d sure hate to pass over some common $1 note from a recent series now only to be asked 10x or more a few years on. By this approach I expect to be about 95% complete in my $1 FRNs very soon as I have concentrated my initial effort on them since taking the St Louis district mantle. There are a couple of scarce series I have learned of in the $1 denomination as well and will be on the look out for them, but I am just about ready to move on to $5s in a more concentrated manner because of this approach with the $1s.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
