TD Henson Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 I have always had moderate interest in paper, but never could really get started. I've found a real fondness toward obselete's and confederate notes. Started a Signature Set to incorporate unique and interesting obsolete notes. Seems to be a fun and interesting way to keep the hobby fresh, take my interest away from coins now and again, so that nothing every gets stale. The first note has a bit of hometown flair. Hagerstown, MD is about 15 miles from where I grew up and I've been watching many of these Hagerstown Bank notes recently. Made a fair offer on this MS 64 EPQ and now I'm the proud owner. Perhaps the most interesting part of these notes is the traceable history, which I hope to be able to add to my Signature Set as time permits.

greysoldier Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 Nice note Todd ~ I completely agree that paper money is a great way to expand your collecting enjoyment and that Hagerstown note of yours is an excellent example. Keep up the good work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revenant Posted April 9, 2016 Report Share Posted April 9, 2016 That is in crazy-good condition for it's age! Really nice looking note and cool idea for the signature set. I love the copper civil war tokens. I wish I had more time to devote to collecting them. I've been working on a set of the Zimbabwe Trillion Series and I'll be posting about that later. I like the PMG holders because it lets me flip them around and look at the note without worrying about messing it up. I also hope it'll help me later on when I try to show them to the kid.
