teamzr1-migration Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 BTW I found this forum since I also have a UBB forum and your forum was listed there. After reading post by Stan, my story is somewhat the same Back in late 1950's I was was given a few bucks from either a aunt or grandmother and was told for some reason to save it. I was about 9 years old at the time and assume it was for doing good in school. In any case I did save it but also as a kid forgot all about it and maybe every 10-20 years I come across this money still in the envelope I had put them in and wonder if it was worth saving it, does it have any worth today ? I know nothing about old money of any kind so this is what I see Six one dollar bills all say silver certifcate where 5 of them are 1957 and one is 1935 One 5 dollar bill from 1928 says US note. here is a few images, Please let me know what they are worth if you can Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mergula-migration Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 Teamzr1 I recently got a US paper book price guide book for 2007, Whitman Red book with the Friedberg Standard catalog codes. The images are a little hard to see if you have a scanner, it works very well for paper money maybe you can scan and repost? Based on what you said the 1928 5 dollar US Note ranges from 15-80$ depending on condition. Crisp is is best at 70-80$ The 1957 Silver Certificate $1 range from about 4-20$ each depending on condition. Hope that helps Shawn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MunkyMan95 Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 Those prices quoted are somewhat on the high side. My local dealer usually sells this type of thing cheaply. The $5 I could probably get for $10-$12 The Silver Cert $1's, maybe $2-3 in that condition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teamzr1-migration Posted July 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 Thanks for the info and input Problem is this forum has the default set to only a max of 200 K bytes for a image allowed when attaching them to posts so I cannot show a much better detail .

Mergula-migration Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 Teamzr1, The $5 1928 F book value is VF $12 and MS 63 $45 My guess on the grade of your $5 is probably XF-AU. And you know the value on the 57 silver 4-20$ Hope that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
