<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ronterry, post: 1359958, member: 28569&quot;]Those are nice finds tBud! </p><p>Boy that would be a tough call! On one hand it would be neat to own a counterfeit as a collector, and on the other hand the righteous goodie two shoes in me would turn it in STAT. It&#039;s actually like finding an unregistered machine gun in your grandfathers attic. Neat and all, but you couldn&#039;t shoot it or show anyone else without some unintended legal issues.</p><p>I once had a friend who found a $10 counterfeit, and wouldn&#039;t shut about it! The freaking moron even framed and hung it in his living room. I wish I knew if anything came of that?</p><p>Is there a possibility it was printed on faulty stock? I have a green eagle that is printed on a noticeably thinner piece of stock. I&#039;m sure the BEP has a thickness range, and it could be on the fringe of that scale?</p><p><br /></p><p>BTW: Back when my mom worked as a bank manager she could feel counterfeits by counting through a strap - and I mean fast!!! lol 20+ years of handling currency can give you that super power. One day I was with her when she received a counterfeit $10 from an ATM. She just took over to the closest bank, and filled out a form and we left. They normally won&#039;t have you waiting around for the COPs unless you try to pass it purposely or accidentally.</p><p>...and yes you lose the money if your the last one to receive it without knowing it. Reason #1 why everyone and not just businesses and banks should know how to spot a fake![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
