<p>[QUOTE="Dave M, post: 942897, member: 17469"]Good memories, Billy. I'll tell you my start in collecting banknotes. When I was probably 14-ish (we're talking ~35 years ago) I found a corner of a $5 bill. Can't even remember where I found it, but it was a triangle torn off the note, with a complete "5" on it. For some reason I decided that I really had to have a collection of torn off corners of banknotes. I think I managed to get 1,2,5,10 and 20, all by tearing the corners off the notes myself, and sweating bullets as I tried to spend the remainder, hoping I wouldn't get "caught" trying to pass a partial banknote. At that point, my collection was complete, at least as far as I could take it. I'm not sure where those corners are now, I may poke around and see if I can find them deep down in some desk drawer.</p><p><br /></p><p>Dave[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
