[QUOTE="Paddy54, post: 25480781, member: 19250"]While surfing the web I ran across these two notes. At first glance I thought neat serial numbers....but passed,and moved on. A few days later for some reason I decided to revisit these two notes. They were offered by a seller in Stow Ohio that I deal with quite often. Now to say that I would pull the trigger on a fancy serial number above face has never happened. Yet.....was pulled back to looking a second time. My father left a scholarship at a private school to get a job at the Federal reserve bank. He was like 15 and the job was more important than education....at that time peroid. As it was the depression and a job as a runner or bill collector paid $5 @ week . Anyway my father went from a runner to a federal reserve agent whom issued as well disposed of money. Notice the series 1974... he retired that summer with 47 consecutive years ago service, and he was at the Baltimore branch of the Richmond bank. So right Federal Reserve bank " Richmond" .....serial numbers 4 and 7 ..... series 1974 . Just seemed to cool to pass up. So I didn't.... :) As these notes would of been released right when he retired with 47 years of service. And there's a good possibility that he would of been in charge of them being released.[ATTACH=full]1630852[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1630853[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1630854[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1630855[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
