[QUOTE="RickieB, post: 847748, member: 2486"]You know guy's... all of you hit on a very true topic. That's is whats ultra cool about Paper Money Collecting. You see each Series is a different Ball Game...Man there is just no way to tell how many of any Series remains with 100% accuracy. The TPG are at least making catalogued remarks on notes that are.

SO go out there and assemble what ever it is that drives you Mad...Booohhahahahah and may success be on your side. For me the lure of 5 different collections has me running in complete circles, ever expanding the knowledge points that just beg to be rivaled. We are all in a group of guardians..we hold these but for a short while then another takes our position. RickieB[/QUOTE]
