<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jlg1130, post: 1430350, member: 26655&quot;]Hey all,</p><p><br /></p><p>So, to cut to the chase: </p><p><br /></p><p>A buddy of mine who works for a clean out/removal/disposal service, found a laminated $5 bill, amongst a bunch of stuff, while cleaning out a house, where somebody recently passed away. The bill was in a box with a bunch of other random junk that the family of the decedent didn&#039;t want. </p><p>The bill is a series 1999 BB-B block note, and doesn&#039;t really have anything special about it. The note even looks like it was pretty well circulated, before being placed in the laminate. The note is genuine, as I held it up to light, and checked for the watermark/security strip.</p><p><br /></p><p>My friend wasn&#039;t sure what to do with it, so he gave it to me because he knows I&#039;m into currency collecting......and now I&#039;m not sure what to do with it. :too-funny:</p><p>If this thing weren&#039;t laminated, I&#039;d probably just spend it, but I doubt anybody would take it in it&#039;s current state. Do you think a bank would exchange it for another one, or is the note forever ruined? </p><p><br /></p><p>I can post pics later, if anybody would like to see it. In the meantime, ideas on what to with it.....and why somebody would laminate a seemingly ordinary &#039;99 $5 are welcomed.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for reading.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
