<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 954057, member: 19065&quot;]@ <b>lv</b>: Small size Red seal $2 notes that get turned into a bank in this day and age are probably <i>quite</i> circulated and far from crisp or premium worthy ($$$) <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. They&#039;ll be from the Series 1928, 1928-A through 1928-G, and Series 1953 through 1953-C, Series 1963, 1963-A Legal Tender Notes as opposed to today&#039;s Federal Reserve Notes. There are also some series of Red Seals with and without the &quot;In God We Trust&quot; motto on the back plate.</p><p><br /></p><p>You can also look for Red seals in many other denominations, as well as blue seal silver certificates, brown seal nationals and FRNs, variations in green inks on some notes/denominations... THEE BEST thing for you to do soon would be to pick up a currency book or two like <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Guide-United-States-Paper-Official/dp/0794823629/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&amp;s=books&amp;qid=1279855023&amp;sr=8-2" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.amazon.com/Guide-United-States-Paper-Official/dp/0794823629/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&amp;s=books&amp;qid=1279855023&amp;sr=8-2" rel="nofollow">A Guide Book of United States Paper Money, 2nd ed.</a>or <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Standard-Guide-Small-Size-Paper-Money/dp/1440202451/ref=dp_ob_image_bk" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.amazon.com/Standard-Guide-Small-Size-Paper-Money/dp/1440202451/ref=dp_ob_image_bk" rel="nofollow">Standard Guide to Small Sized Paper Money: 1928 to date, 9th ed.</a> Then you can peruse all the sorts of bills and features you may be on the look out for. It will also guide you to rarer Series notes.</p><p><br /></p><p>You mentioned that you&#039;ll be going &quot;thumbing&quot;... with circulated notes it won&#039;t matter too much, but if you are cracking into new straps of notes, take extra extra care in handling them. The tiniest of bumps and soft folds are permanent and unforgiving.</p><p><br /></p><p>Let us know what you find!!![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
