When you see and old style bill, you def. want to keep it. Back in 1996 when they started printing the new style bills, I thought that it would be cool to save some. Not knowing that my collection would have gone so far, but looking back now over 10 years later it is really amazing to see how many types of bills our economy has gone through. One of the main things that started me in collecting was because I told that these bills, once taken to the bank, would shortly be shredded. So I thought that if I kept a bunch, then I would be one of the only people with a whole bunch of them, and then I could give them to my grandchildren, and then maybe it would help them out someday or something. I don't really know, I was only like, 8 years old. But now looking back at my old curriency, I have coolected about $2300.00 in old $5,10,20,50, and $100. After all these years though I am only about at $1900, but when you need money, sometimes you HAVE To spend it. Give or take the shape of each one. Plus, not only having a collection of old bills to show off, I also bought my dream car with $200 of my savings. It's alright though, because I bought a 1973 VW Karmann Ghia Coupe, and I only spent $5, $10 bills on it. Heres of picture of my car.
