Title: New registry find added to my prefix collection 1974 $2 *BC above 1.9 million
Post by: q60driver on March 26, 2025, 11:13:09 am
Just added this to the registry. It's a new high serial number. Not in the best of shape but rare, nonetheless.  I now have all but 2 of the 1974 $2 prefixes. Still looking for BP Modified Tint and *RD.

Enjoy!

The *RD will be a challenge as there are currently only 3 examples known if i remember correctly. Im surprised you never found a BP modified tint, they are fairly common. Its the original tint that is the hard one to find.

Yeah, I'm not going to hold my breath on the *RD lol. The BP is interesting as I found the original tint easily. I can only find 1 BP modified for sale right now and it's extremely over priced so I'll wait.

That's the one I mentioned above. Seller is in the US and shipping alone is $20. I contacted the seller but he won't use lettermail. It would end up costing me $40 for a really rough note. I'd rather wait for a nicer example anyway.

Thanks for looking though!
