Strange but True.......... 2006 Swap Meet in South Bend

I was a vendor in South Bend this past weekend, I sold a NOS rear quarter panel fo a C/K pre 1962. I sold the panel and was paid in cash

350.00. After my arrival back home I/We realized we were paid in "some" older fifty dollar bills. I received one fifty dollar bill that was dated 1928, a quick check showed this bill worth 500.00 in good condition and 1000.00 in fine condition, I am sure of the 500.00 value.... may have more!

I am posting this to everyone who may have dealt with this person........... check all 50.00 bills!!!!

I have two more pre 1950 bills................. this swap meet was VERY profitable....

damn......I wondered what I did with those bills.....I thought that seperate part in my wallet would keep me from using them!!! How 'bouts I mail ya a check for the amount of the quarter panel and you mail my cash back?

A long time ago, I ran an auto jobber store... One day a guy comes in needing some parts. He was hurting real bad and paid me in cash, all with silver certificates. I told him that I would hold the bills for him (if he wanted to get some money out of the bank later on). He never came back in and I still have those silver certificates in my safe.

don't laugh, wheat pennies are worth more than a penny nowadays

problem is, it takes a lot of them to add up

email the other day suggested copper was 8 grand a ton, have NOT checked that fact.. HOWEVER, ANOTHER email said ANY penny before a 1982 was worth 2.4 cents AS SCRAP.. they were pure copper..

I remember that Bo bought a NOS quarter from a guy from PA on Sat afternoon for about that price. The same guy who had told me half an hour previously that he would take it home if he couldn't get $450. for it! I guess I just don't have Bo's charm. lol.

I'll be chatting with you shortly.
