[QUOTE="clembo, post: 363726, member: 8033"]Man I'd just love to show you guys this one but it got away:( Worked at the coin shop yesterday and business was brisk on the buying end. The owner had one transaction all tallied up and had me finish the paperwork and payment. So I go to the drawer to pay the guy and spot 2 older style twenties. I put them on the bottom of the stack for later perusal. The rush finally ends and we settle down for some lunch. I told the owner I wanted to look at those notes. Gotta do that with him as it's HIS money you know. No problem he says but alas someone had used them as a payout:( I did notice one was a 1985 in at least XF. He asked me why I wanted a look and I told him about the Feds plan to destroy such notes. This was news to him! He asked where I got the information so I threw in a plug for the fine folks at CoinTalk :) Now at least he'll be looking. Seems I'll be seing some old style notes and if I can afford them will snatch them up. On a side note we had a nice 1993 $100 note go through on Saturday. The lady that was helping us knows nothing about coins or paper basically but she DID bring it to his attention. He had me look at it and we let it go. I couldn't afford it and they are hard to get a premium on (I'd have to turn it real fast at this point). Bright side is at least they're looking now. clembo[/QUOTE]
