Old bills found

[Immy]

Time to start a thread just for older bills found in circulation. The only rule is the bill has to be dated before 1990.

Found a doozie today to start things off --> $1 FRN 1969D H83877138A

It's pretty worn and I always wonder if bills like this are worth keeping.

I stiil have 2 $1 silver certificates 1934 issue that were stamped "HAWAII" on the back. I was told they did that incase Japan took over the islands they would be void. Some lady paid for her pizza with them when I was delivering back in the '90s. If I can find them I'll scan them and post pic's for you.

dang! those r some really old bills!!! cool story behind them too. thanks for sharing, that definately beats my 1988.

 

[DigginThePast]

So now old bills are before 1990 huh? I outta get my cane...

 

[savant365]

I couldn't find mine but here is what they look like. And the website I found these on says they were printed in 1935 not 1934.

I received these after doing some siding for my wifes dad. He payed me 70 dollars all in ones. I started looking at them and noticed that they are all series 1963 B. When I got home I spread them all out on a table and seen that 4 of them were bar stars. Not sure if they are really worth anything, but thats a first for me.

savant365 ,
very nice score u have there, thats very cool, and thanks for the pics!!!
nick.foltz ,
thats awesome, i would imagine they would be worth quite a bit over face, especially that many, post 'em on ebay, and u could probably catch a pretty penny, thanks for sharing, and love the pic too!

 

[nick.foltz]

Thanks ChainChomp. The funny thing is he rents houses. A tenant paid 300 dollars all in ones so thats what he paid me with. I called him that night to see if he had anymore, and told him the deal. He said he spent the rest of them. So they are floating around Indy somewhere.

A Barr note is still on my want list... Anyway, since January, i've found a 1974 $1, a 1977-A $1, and a 1985 $1... and of course the ubiquitous 1976 $2

 

[nick.foltz]

Hey Coinsearcher83 if you want to buy them you can have them. I'm more into the coins than paper currency. PM me if interested. They aren't ripped just in circulated condition. I can send more pictures.

AU24K,

Chainchomp my Friend,
I move Hundreds of dollars through about 7-10 different banks and branches each week.
I started the addiction with pennies and, well....

Best Wishes,
Scott

oh, that explains it, but if u dont mind me asking is it in bundles of notes, and if so, is it from the fed bundles, or the bank bundles thanks.

I've found quite a few good bills older than 1990. I got a 1963 $20 note from the register at work a while back, and a 1934 $20. Both in good shape, those are my best old note finds. I have got some low serial star notes and a radar note too

 

[CHAINCHOMP]

[strauchfx]

Found 5 1934 $50 bills, and 2 AU 1950 $50 bills. Going to check out the serials, I didn't have time before to see if they were stars or not.

Deciding which ones I want to buy
