When i arrived at work today the bank teller that works in the small bank in the lobby i sit in called me over,
"You collect old money don't you?" she asked me. i told her i did, she opened her registre and pulled out a $10 bill. "is this something you would like ?" she asked and smiled, i almost dropped my jar, i was staring at a 1950 $10 bill, never had i seen one or owned one that old, i asked her if i could buy it, "Sure that will be $10," i paid her and for some reason that just made my day.

Wow! Could it still be used for transactions?

I've read somewhere that 1993 series of US notes cant be used anymore. Does it apply to notes this old?

Oh yeah another question!

For those old silver coins that you guys found under ground, how much are their values should they be bought from dealers and are there anyways to determine if they are real stuff.

I'm going to head for the flea markets over here and look for them. :thumbsup:
 
No the 1993 series are no good, everyone needs to send their's to me now!!!!!!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I'm just kidding, I'm sure they will still "spend" along with the others

Nice old "Ten" nice and crisp looking :thumbsup:
 
Looks crispy as well and double folded, was probably tucked in sombodys wallet a long time.
 
nice....you are lucky that lady remembers what makes ya smile! Take her some chocolate or something! :tongue3:

The condition of the bill struck me right away too! I don't even think it has any real creases - looks more like it might have been stuck in a book or something.

Nice!
 
When I used to work in retail security, one of the cash office employees indicated that she had a fake $20 bill that came through. When I went to check it out, I noticed that it wasn't fake, just a 1950 $20 bill. With management's permission I traded a newer $20 bill for the old one. It is my oldest bill so far, and just like you it made my day! Grats on the bill.

wtg on that $10 bill not every day you fine one of them...Matt
 
it's funny. People will turn in anything.. I had some kids in the store a couple of weeks ago and they had a bunch of 2.00 dollar bills.
They must of got into their parents cache....
 
For a 59 yr old bill looks likes in excellent shape. Times are tough and someone must have needed to cash it in to get there account up to date.

I'd say its a nice find and such a sweet teller for letting you know!! It'd make my day too!!
 
WoW, I love it, nice score! I started collecting those many years ago because
I got five somewhere at one time, don't remember where. I have ten now and
one from 1934 but none are in that good condition. But one is a star note, I
think that makes it worth something more that 10 dollars??? Sorry for the
poor pictures, my digital camera is almost as old as these notes ;D

TwinDigger, how old were the 2dollar bills. I can get as many 1976 series
as I want, here at my bank anyway, almost uncirculated, AU, they still make
them I believe.
