Best Paper Find: Crisp UNC Series 2001 $50 Note SERIAL# CB 16561656 A - I was a Pay Agent in Iraq and held at least $100,000 US per week of Saddams captured money which was to pay for rebuilding the basic infrastructure of towns in my area of operation. Yes, I replaced it with my own money...I was responsible for every cent. Believe me, I was looking for star, repeaters, errors, ect in all that available money!
In all my years of collecting I have NEVER found a piece of paper money in circulation that would bring a premium over face.
Papper find was 1950 A series $5 star note
