While in my travels today, I was able to obtain some decent old U.S. currency to add to my collection. Some of the finer examples are pictured below for your viewing pleasure: 1 Dollar Silver Certificate 1928A

The $2 are really nice and the Silver certificate is also. Do you ever run across any bills with a counter stamp on them up North?

What do you mean by "counter stamp"? Folks stamp different things on the bills. Like the Where's George. I know you have seen this one. I have seen different things on them over the years and was just wondering if any one collected them. |

O.K. I see what you mean now. Yes, I've seen "Where's George?", and also I have a few $2 notes with a 13 cent stamp & postmark from 1976 on them. |
