Slacker Posted November 26, 2009 Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 Hello all, I apologize if this question has been askesd before. Can one purchase brand new uncirculated bills direct from the BEP? I checked their website but the store is down for maintenance. For example, on ebay there are a few sellers listing 100 new uncirculated two dollar bills in the BEP straps for approx $240.00. my question is can a non dealer buy the same bills from the BEP. Additionally I noticed that only 1 and 2 dollar bills appear to be available, can larger denominations be purchased? I would like to collect a pack of each denomination currently printed by the BEP, any insight would be most appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiHoAudio Posted November 26, 2009 Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 You can get packs of uncirculated US banknotes from most banks at face value. I used to buy a pack of 100 $1 notes every Friday (payday) and search for stars, errors and radar notes. Believe it or not I had a pack of B district (NY) web notes that I eventually spent because they were so ugly. That $100 pack would now be worth about $2000.

Conder101 Posted November 26, 2009 Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 The only paper money you can buy direct from the BEP are a few collectors items and uncut sheets of currency. They don't sell packs of currency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
