So are you gonna propose to her or am I?



Looks like they are the "poor mans" gold certificates. Awesome
Do they say redeemable in gold in the small text besides the head?

No it says This Note is legal tender for all debts public and private, and is redeemable in lawful money at the united states treasury, or at any federal reserve bank.

LOL..She is all yours as long as I get to keep on getting the currency..

that is why it pays to make friends with the tellers,and be nice to all of them even the ones that treat you like crap. i always smile and say thank you no matter what. the other day i was at my dump bank and i had a teller call me over to the line and she gave me a 1967 kennedy.

as i have stated before i am a police officer in my home town. the funny thing about those 1928 series bills is they won't mark with one of those fake pens the bank uses to check bills. we get a call at least once amonth from a bank teller that says she has found a fake bill LOL. i just go to the bank and tell her/him i will take the bill and buy it from them. i say nothing else. got quite a few that way, and the teller always looks dumbfounded, i told one to call me everytime she gets one and gave her my card

I saw that happen at McDonalds once.....they absolutely refused to take this lady's 1950 $10 bill (she had two of them)... I would have bought them, but I had no cash on me.

I was talking to my local coin dealer a few weeks ago about halves. Told him I loved spending them to see the reaction people give. He said he used one at a walmart not long ago. The girl at the register looked at it, flipped it over, and kept staring at both sides for a while. Then she looked up at him and said, "is this like a dollar or something?" He told her it was a half dollar,and she replied, "I cant take this." Kids these days.
