Bought a Gold Mine for $1,000 today!
You never know when opportunity knocks. Received a phone call from locale Tucson Coin Dealer who just bought an Estate, and if I’d like to look at the World Currency.
There’s way over 1,500 world banknote that I checked out. The bulk of the banknotes were very common, which I also have need for handouts when kids stop at my local show table. Especially when Dad is buying something to add to his collection, I’ll tell the kids to reach in and find a couple of banknotes the like — And give to them.
As they say the best was for last. Inside the Currency box was a beautiful eye opener. The following photo s just a few of what I call a gold mine. Telling the dealer that I’d offer to pay $1,000 for everything. The bulk of the collection material in Choice or better Crisp Bank Fresh
There’s over 100 different Large 1920-36 Chinese, all kinds of high grade German & some German State Notes.
What do you think?

I paid $60 for this. Did I scam myself?
I paid $60 for this $7 bill from NC along side a bunch of US notes in a lot at a flee market in Georgia a few years ago, and I just now dug it up again. Is it worth what I paid for it?
Bought these five sequential bills off eBay ungraded. Pretty happy with how they came back!
Super Serial #6… Fun to add some foreign notes to the collection.
Underrated places to find bills
I’m still pretty new to paper money collecting and I’m curious where people have had the best luck finding interesting notes in the wild.
Besides the obvious stuff like eBay, coin shops, and major auctions, what are some underrated places to look for cash that may or may not end up being rare? I’m thinking things like banks, estate sales, antique stores, old family collections, register tills, local auctions, etc.
Not asking for anyone’s secret spot, just trying to learn where experienced collectors actually find cool U.S. paper currency without overpaying right away.
Birthday gift from my dad. Is this a gold certificate?
I collect coins and not much paper money. This small text says:
REDEEMABLE IN GOLD ON DEMAND AT THE UNITED STATES TREASURY OR IN GOLD OR LAWFUL MONEY AT ANY FEDERAL RESERVE BANK
Does that make this a gold certificate?
Repost!
Hey everyone! Reposting, I was unsure of where to put it and it got removed. Just wondering people’s thoughts and if I should maybe grab some more! There are a few others that are in consecutive order. Thinking of grading and selling as a group, never did it before!
I FOUND THIS IN THE REGISTER AT WORK

Complete 1928 US-Philippines Banknote Set issued by Bank of the Philippines Islands
A tough and expensive set to complete. The 50 and higher denominations have extremely low print runs (4090 for the 50, 2100 for the 100 and 1060 for the 200). This is further compounded with the issues having a fairly low survival rate due to war and attrition. Issues by BPI also experiences solid demand among local collectors further increasing its scarcity. Even in ww2, the populace and even Japanese forces found these particular bills quite attractive according to the book “Salapi”, (Bersales & Apuhin, 2014). These notes were also printed by the USBEP, so the quality of the print and ink are quite high. In fact, the lady with scales seen in the 200 peso note was a vignette from fractional issued in the US civil war in the 1860s.
