GW Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 i just saw a commerical for this $2 National Park Note. http://newenglandmintcoins.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=107 i wish they would stop modifying/altering good notes. maybe it helps get more people interested in collecting, but i wish they would leave the money (notes and coins) alone. is there a collectors maket for these altered notes/coins ? do any of you collect them ? does PMG/NGC grade them ?

JIM F. Posted November 8, 2010 Report Share Posted November 8, 2010 This is a total joke. Why not get out your crayons and create your own "collectible". A real "P.T. Barnum Special". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve in Tampa Posted November 10, 2010 Report Share Posted November 10, 2010 Love'em or hate'em, they're out there......and they do it with coins too. As a collector, I have absolutley no interest in these "novelty" notes, but as melting does with coins, it makes the rare, CH-CU notes even more rare. Thank goodness they use common notes. Almost like the notes that have the "Where's George" stamp on the face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Bruce Thornton Posted November 10, 2010 Member Report Share Posted November 10, 2010 We would not grade these, they would be returned as "altered notes" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogerRamjet-migration Posted November 11, 2010 Report Share Posted November 11, 2010 Yes, these notes go the way of hologram Silver eagles and santa bucks, but I think that instead of National Park Quarters, the govt. should have issued National Park $2 with the reverse of the $2 being the National Parks. To go a step further, why not, as we are changing the face of notes, replace the reverses with famous paintings like the $2 has. Use the paintings found around the US Capital rotundra (Like they used to do with the Charter Notes). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twominator Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 What a waste of a two dollar bill! I love collecting $2 FRN and a good friend knows I that I do and she said to me last week, "I bet you heard all about the new $2 that issued with the National Parks....." There is always a market, just like there is a market on TV for the 24k gold layered coins we see advertised all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mintcollector Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 We would not grade these, they would be returned as "altered notes" The best statement I ever heard about these 'notes.' Thank you PMG for not giving in to the temptation to make a 'quick buck...' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
