<p>[QUOTE="OMG_Bill, post: 838204, member: 23910"]Nice notes mpcusa! I used to collect Fractional Currency. Actually I just got away for a few years and I'm starting to shop again. I like the size, colors, history, vignettes and the things they were doing to keep them from being counterfeited. The first issue with the perforated edges w/o monogram, the third and fourth issues are my favorites. The artwork is amazing and the autographed notes are just plain history and I love it. </p><p>The MPC currency is very colorful as are loads of foreign currency but sheesh, I'm just a working man. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>I've collected a few coins but the first fractional was a fifth issue 10 cent note with green seal and Meredith's face. The coin dealer had it labled "green Grumpy" and that suited me just fine. It was pristine in my untraind eye and proved to be uncirculated by one of the TPG companies. It was my fave for a long time and it slipped away a few years ago.......I have reasons. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>I could go on but this is enough for a junior member.

[QUOTE="OMG_Bill, post: 838204, member: 23910"]Nice notes mpcusa! I used to collect Fractional Currency. Actually I just got away for a few years and I'm starting to shop again.

The MPC currency is very colorful as are loads of foreign currency but sheesh, I'm just a working man. ;) I've collected a few coins but the first fractional was a fifth issue 10 cent note with green seal and Meredith's face. The coin dealer had it labled "green Grumpy" and that suited me just fine. It was pristine in my untraind eye and proved to be uncirculated by one of the TPG companies.

Oh, one more thing, I bought most of my notes raw. I didn't trust TPGs but they were tough to sell with out being graded.[/QUOTE]
