<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Daggarjon, post: 208331, member: 4230&quot;]<b>my war story is with some notes i bought</b></p><p><br /></p><p>a tad of topic but .... my worst story is about a drop in value. I normally wait it out till prices settle down before making a purchase off the secondary market. But this note, a 2003A star note from k district was gleeming at me. I checked the printing numbers and only 320,000 were printed. In the terms of notes where millions upon millions are printed, 320k is nothing. The notes were going for about $100+ EACH. i was lucky (cough cough) at the time to get the 2 sequentially numbered notes form just a hair shy of $100 EACH. At the time i was very excited about winning the notes because our Secretary of the Treasury John W. Snow announced his retirement. With a new Secretary of the Treasury, we would be getting a new series of notes. This meant that they would not be able to mint any more of the 2003A K district star notes. So when i bought these 2 notes, i thouhgt i was so smart, and felt very proud of myself. </p><p><br /></p><p>Well, the Bureau of Printing is taking its sweet time in getting the 2006 (maybe 2007) series notes with the signature of the new Secretary of the Treasury printed. So, while waiting for the new series to be printed, they printed more of the 2003A k district notes. And not just a few either =( so my notes will effectively drop form the 100 range to maybe 10 (give or take) of course only time will tell their true value <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
