[QUOTE="Kanderus, post: 1165256, member: 28447"]First, let me tell you all that I am an utter noob when it comes to paper money, and a slightly less utter noob when it comes to coinage. Walked into the bank by my home, asked for half dollars or anything "interesting". Guy said "I have a $1 silver certificate." I gave him 4 quarters, and I got it =D It has quite a bit of folds in it, and probably not worth too much. I know it is a series 1957A and in the bottom right corner it says D653. Now, that leads me to my question: I told my father in law about it and he showed me his $1 silver cert. It is definatly uncirculated. This thing looks like it never even saw the light of day it is so nice. He wanted me to ask you all what, if anything, it is worth. I will give you all the info on it, as best I can. Firstly, the note seems to be cut square. Now, the serial # reads V76875915A Series 1957 B Lower right corner, above the "1" it reads D779. Just to the lower left of the "T" in The United States of America on the obverse there is a D1. Seems to be signed Katheryn O'hay Gr...something Treasurer of the United States and C. Douglas Dillon Secretary of the Treasury. The reverse looks like a standard One Dollar Note, I don't see anything out of place, but then again I really don't know what to look for. Thank you for all your help! I will try and get some pics up of my note, and possibly my father in law's if he allows it. I really don' want to scan it, and my camera sucks but I will see what I can do =D Thanks! --Rob.[/QUOTE]
