Title: Frustrating notes
Post by: StormThief24 on March 21, 2008, 01:56:12 am: I know that there are already several threads about this, but they have been sitting unreplied for a long time, so...
Lets start with my 1973 $1, serial number FA8148144, then I have a 2006 $5 serial number AOP1181218, 2 1986 $5s serial numbers GPU8966688 and 99, 2001 $10 FDT0030383, 1991 $20 AWW6900697, 1969 $20 WG7665661, 1954 $20 G/E 0087708, and a 1954 $50 A/H 8022022. All those notes are "aging" in my collection right now.

I made a few assumptions. Hope this gives you an approximate idea of the value of your notes. Actual market value may likely be less than the Charlton Catalog book value.

You may have got a quicker response if you posted in the "What's it worth" category.

PD

I'm not really asking the value (because I have a Charlton) but thank you for your opinion. I meant this post as a showcase for those "so close but no dice" notes. Which I seem to have a disproportionate amount of. The "best" special number notes I have are just a few lowly birthday notes.

Not so close.

Post by: StormThief24 on May 11, 2008, 12:37:23 pm: Yes, but it is close because all the other numbers are the same.

Post by: copperpete on May 12, 2008, 05:12:13 pm: I would prefer to get the 5555555 instead the 9999999, because it would be in a better shape than the 9999999 (the end of a bundle).
