<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SteveInTampa, post: 1457410, member: 27107&quot;]Saving notes like this, found in circulation, is the equivalent of saving State Quarters found in circulation. I fail to see anything historic or priceless about this note. The note in question this time is a series 1995 $5 B-F block, printed in November 1998 .Threads like this are mainstays of this forum and inevitabley end up being divided into two camps. </p><p><br /></p><p>Camp One sees history and collectibility in just about any note printed 10 years ago or more, regardless of condition or serial number. This reminds me of collecting coins when I was a kid, and filling the blue, Whitman coin folders with coins found in circulation. This was fun, challenging, educational and an inexpensive way of entering and enjoying numismatics. Nothing wrong with this, but nothing historic or priceless, more like a hobby. If you are collecting $5&#039;s, and want to try and find every block of series 1995 $5 , (there are 62, not including star notes) then you are on your way....just 61 more to complete your set. </p><p><br /></p><p>Camp Two will try and give you an honest evaluation of condition and value, and let <b>you</b> decide whether to keep the note, trade the note, sell the note, or spend the note. We see this all the time......is this an error?, what&#039;s this worth?, is a $2 bill worth more than $2?, was this a good deal?, keeper&#039;s or spender&#039;s?....the list goes on and on. That&#039;s how we all learn about the hobby. Camp two <b>loves</b> finding cool, old notes in circulation, but also doesn&#039;t mind spending above face value for notes they collect.</p><p><br /></p><p>Good thread papermoney54....like I said in my original post, &quot;Keep it if you like it, but to me it&#039;s a spender&quot;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="color: #000000"><br /></span></p><p>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
