Post your best finds!Heres my best find ever. It comes with an interesting story too!

Okay, so I go to my local bank often and go through $1 stacks to look for the usual. Today I decided to switch it up a bit. I decided to go through $5's. So there I was with my fav teller going through $5's. I found one nice XF 2006 Boston $5 * (my first $5 * pulled from circ ). But thats not my best find at all. At the end when I was getting read to leave, she asked me I wanted all the $5's back or what. I thought to myself and decided to go through some $10's at home. Instead she pulled out some consec 2009 New York $10's. I wasn't too enthusiastic about them at all, but I took them and decided to go switch them out at another bank some time. I got home and decided to go through them. Little did I know these were at the bottom of the stack:


Thats probably the best thing thats happened for my collection. I was upset about getting the new $10's rather than used, but I'm sure glad I did! Does anyone know how much it would cost to get these graded? They are GEM's. These are as well my first pulled $10 stars. Now the only current denominations I haven't found *'s for are $50 and $100.

Good story, and great find. Having them graded may/may not help you sell them. If you plan on adding them to your personal currency collection, have one or two of the best candidates graded and sleeve the rest. It runs anywhere from $15 to $25 each to have them graded, depending on the TPG and any monthly specials they are running.

I have to agree with Steve on this one. Grading costs between $15- $25 for each note, so I would only have the best examples graded and sleeve the rest in a rigid note holder.
