<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gatzdon, post: 304992, member: 8247&quot;]My policy is when I ask a bank for bills, I don&#039;t cherrypick.&nbsp; I take them all regardless of condition, ESPECIALLY the $2&#039;s.&nbsp; It helps to build the relationship because they know that</p><p><br /></p><p>1. I won&#039;t complain</p><p>2. I won&#039;t waste their time if they go out of their way for me</p><p>3. I take things off their hands that would otherwise be a nuisance for years to come sitting in the vault, constantly needing to be balanced, etc....</p><p><br /></p><p>So, in picking up $2&#039;s this past week, I have come across the following.</p><p><br /></p><p>1. the first note is a 1976 $2 Star note from the New York district (the most star notes of all the districts) and not a low serial number either, but a Star Note none-the-less.&nbsp; When you see it, you will cringe (at a minimum).</p><p><br /></p><p>2.&nbsp; A collage (if you can call it that) of some other abused $2 bills.&nbsp; I shrank the file to upload it to CT, but I think there&#039;s enough detail to see the extent of the abuse.</p><p><br /></p><p>If anyone wants any of these, you have to let me know soon (I&#039;m sure you will all be breaking down my door).&nbsp; I think I&#039;m going to keep the star note, but the rest are going back to the Federal Reserve Bank for a date with a shredder.&nbsp; I have one branch that I bring all my mutilated to, but only in full straps of 100 notes.&nbsp; They are OK with this since they never end up with an odd amount in their vault because of me.&nbsp; This last batch brings me up to another full strap of $2&#039;s.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
