<p>[QUOTE="johnmilton, post: 26595640, member: 101855"]I am not an expert in paper money, but oddly enough, it was illegal to hold and collect the gold certificates after Roosevelt’s gold surrender order in 1933. This was in force for a long time despite the fact that the notes had no gold on them. As a collector you could collect rare U.S. gold coins, and, little known to most at the time, everyone could save $100 in gold coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
