[QUOTE="GoldFinger1969, post: 26611113, member: 73489"][B]I'm going to FUN 2026 in about 10 days and was wondering if any of the Currency/Bill collectors were headed there. [/B] Last time I went -- in 2020 -- I would say that maybe 5-7% of the vendors were bill-focused. Maybe it'll be more now. My original intent was to add a nice gold coin and some silver, but the rise in the underlying metals prices has really screwed me. Unless I find nice specimens, I may pass. Which brings me here...my back up could be a couple of nice bills and then hope that gold & silver fall in subsequent months. Not sure what I might look for but if I have to go home without the disappointment of a Saint or some nice Morgans these could help get over them: [LIST] [*][B][COLOR=#b30000]Large Currency Bill [/COLOR][/B]($500 doable in 63-64 condition, $1,000 in 58) [*]A really [B][COLOR=#b30000]low (single-digit) serial number bill [/COLOR][/B]from decades ago (not a modern). [*][B]Black Eagle Silver Certificate [/B](I don't have any Large Size bills of any kind so anything Large would be a nice addition). With the $$$ not chasing gold, I could go pretty decent here in quality (mid-60's ?). [*]Another [B][COLOR=#ff8000]Gold Certificate in $50[/COLOR][/B] and good quality. [/LIST] I already have Hawaii and North Africa bills so unless I went up a ton in quality and/or lower in SN not sure there's anything there to grab me. My bill collection is eclectic -- whatever grabs me at the moment :D -- and my prized possessions are probably my SN #715 Hawaii Note PMG-67 and an EF-45 Gold Certificate $10.[/QUOTE]
