[QUOTE="Hommer, post: 2446740, member: 73266"]My dad worked out of town for sometimes months at a time, I can remember as a child, going to the bank with my mom to deposit my dad's check, and to take care of other business. Once when we went to the president's office, I spyed his collection of large currency that was displayed on the wall. He told me that they belonged to his grandfather who started the bank. They were extremely fancy to a child, but as I grew older and stared my own family, I would go back there on many occasions and admire those same notes, but in a different light. I have collected coins off and on most of my life, but have always loved paper currency. Except for the small size silver certificates that I occasionally pulled from circulation, I never really saw any other old notes except those at the bank. I have collected and added several large notes to my collection in recent years, and have always had the desire to have at least one note from my state. I don't know if they are very scarce or if no one ever puts them on the market, but I personally have seen very few. I bought a note on ebay about a year ago that was pretty tattered, but I wanted it, and it was the first one that I had seen come up. Well yesterday I was lucky enough to add 3 to the lone one, and am quite proud of them even if no one else can be. Please post your notes from the state that you call your's..
