<p>[QUOTE="bqcoins, post: 562167, member: 5036"]A lot of you know that while I appreciate paper for its beauty and artistry I don't really dabble in that world and other than the few silver certs and $2 notes I don't have much in the way of paper. That all changed yesterday. I saw the most outstanding national note. It is a beauty, you can't see it in these photos, but it does have two folds that at one time broke the surface of the paper, and the bottom right corner does show some rounding but the paper is crisp, clean and colorful.</p><p><img src="http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff71/bqcoins/IMG_3312.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff71/bqcoins/IMG_3314.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>Now the dealer had a pretty pricey tag on this around $350. I talked him way down from that and managed to get the note for $250. I thought I did pretty good overall for a very nice piece. As you can see it is from the first national charter bank of Lincoln, NE. The only thing left for me to do is figure out what this puppy is worth, but even if its only worth what I paid for it I still feel like I got the good end of the deal.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
