[QUOTE="jlg1130, post: 1475978, member: 26655"]Personally, I save anything (based on age) series 1995 and older, for $5's - $20's, any condition. I usually don't save $50's or $100's, at all. Nice notes I will save for my collection, beat up ones will be set aside in my trade/emergency cash pile, usually to eventually be spent on nicer notes for my collection (or gas & groceries if I'm having a slow cash flow week). Series 2001 and older for $1's (one caveat to this: any series 2001 or 1999 $1 that I save needs to not be heavily circulated, if it is, I throw it back). The same applies to condition for notes added to my collection, vs. the trade/emergency pile, for series 1995 and older. For $2's, I don't save them unless it's a series or block I don't have yet (I'm an avid $2 bill fan/collector). Saving circulated notes is all based on personal prefrence. No two people are going to agree on a specific "cut off" for age, and some are more forgiving as far as wear and tear from circulation, than others. However, it is interesting to me, to see the differing viewpoints on this topic. :)[/QUOTE]
