[QUOTE="Twobit, post: 2110445, member: 73939"]First and foremost: collect what you find appealing as it is YOUR collection. The smaller denoms are much more afforadble in circulated grades I wouldn't pay much over $1-2 over face for them as they are readily available Red & blue notes $1,$2,$5"s seem to be very popular. There's so many different ways to collect em. You could go with districts (12) Take for example $1 silvers 1957,1957 A, 1957 B (36 notes) more if you add the star notes. Or you could go crazy and collect all districts and letters (A XXXXXXXX A) to (A XXXXXXXX Z) per district & series (79 notes x 12 districts=948 notes x 3 series 57,57a,57b=2,844 notes). If my math is correct that would be 53 notes just within the A XXXXXXXX A to A XXXXXXXX Z and only one district, add the stars for another 26 notes. Add that all up and you have a life long inexpensive plight. I've seen an almost complete set like that (quite awesome to say the least). edit: to add I use the standard Catalog of United States Paper Money 26th edition by Krause publications (full color)[/QUOTE]
