<p>[QUOTE="NOS, post: 2329198, member: 2098"]The 'paper' used in currency from the 1930's and 40's is different than the paper stock used in newer notes. Notes from this era are characteristically thinner and shinier than notes from other decades. This often causes bank tellers and cashiers to think such notes are fake when they turn up (it doesn't help that the counterfeit pen doesn't work on them, either). I'm not sure about current values for your notes but I'd say your $10 note is quite authentic and looks to be a nice acquisition. I think you also did well on the two silver certificates.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
