[QUOTE="CaptHenway, post: 4859520, member: 13813"]I saw nothing obviously wrong with the OP pictures. I would have expected it to be a little bit redder in color, but it may have been dipped and/or the camera's color balance may have been off. Right now common $20's have a negligible premium over melt value, percentage wise. However, always remember that today is not all of time.
