When I posted about an ebay auction of an English £100 the note attracted some appreciative responses so here's a Scottish £100 note from 1951. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=3173&item=3936433555&rd=1 I don't collect above £20 notes hence I'm drawing attention to it. ...

Hello, Have any of you hear Paul Harvey's noon broadcast today? If not, one of the "news" items that he talks about a publicity stunt by the ABC TV network. This stunt is designed to promote the upcoming "Commander In Chief" program. It sounds like they have struck some kind of deal with the...

A slabbed Scottish note, it should be a hanging offence. As the printing of Scottish notes is of a very high standard I would not have thought that a 65 grade, whatever that is, is anything to get excited about, it's not as if it was printed 100 years ago. At least the staring price is low. ...

Amazing, this seller has now listed yet more "unc" Scottish notes, he has listed over the last few days more oldish uncirculated notes than I have in my entire collection, and that in most collections I suspect.. They just have to have been treated, his buyers are full of praise for the junk he...

I know this is a paper money forum, but I figure someone out there has to know what's the reasoning behind denominating gold coins in $20 pieces, etc? Is that required by some law so that it qualifies as legal tender even though only a fool would part with it at face value? Why not just issue...

I sold some Irish pounds on Ebay a few days ago. Got comments and help here. I had a total of 5 auctions, won by 4 individuals - 2 Brits, 2 Yanks. Brits paid within litterally hours of auction end. Still waiting for the Americans, 5 days after the auction. All Paypal. What's a reasonable/normal...

Hi all, I am a coin collector but Am just starting to get into Currency collecting as well. My main interest is international and foreign notes just because they are alot more colorful and different looking than our U.S. Currency. One type of note that caught my eye is the "Anarctica" Sets. I see...

I just received my Series 2003 $2 Premium Fed Set today. After all the bitching and moaning I've caused since complaining about "early Friday sales", (see last weeks Coin World mag article and previous threads in the newsgroup) I finally got set #525. For having faxed my order at 12:18 A.M. on the...

Well, after 6+ years, I still laugh at the grading and the use of the word "Rare" on eBay. There is one asshole from Tappahanock, Virginia who calls Every single note he lists, even ragged CSA issues that would be worth less than $10 retail, "Rare". Knowingly telling a baldface LIE to induce...

Hello, Anything new on the subject? Tom K

According to the lead clerk at the local BB&B store, "corporate policy requires they use the counterfeit pen on any Twos, 50s, or 100s". In fact they are so ignorant that the clerk I was dealing with had to call the lead clerk to see if they could even accept Toms. You can bet that any...

I am trying to find out the date when the change of "no motto" to "motto" on the series 1935G Silver certificate, took place. We all know that 1935G series was printed between Jan. 30, 1961 and April 13, 1962. We also know that a "with motto" bill is worth about 4 times that of a "no motto" bill....
