Wooo Hooo! Completed Another Low Bal Set!!

Found this beauty and knew I had to have it! I just got my grade in on it.... Green 2!! Just as I expected! These are not my photos but the auction photos. I've been looking for this 1890 $2 Treasury note for at least 3 years.

    The super low grades can be as hard to find as the super high grades.

    Congratulations! It's an awesome day when you complete a set. A little bittersweet too since that particular hunt has now come to an end.

    Thanks gang!

    Luckybucks - You are 100% correct! Finding no-problem low grades is as hard as finding high grades. Most low grades have tape, missing pieces, or mold or something like it growing on the bill.

    Tookybandit - Another person who is 100% correct. I finally found the missing part of my large size $2 design set!! Now what do I do? Sometime the hunt is more fun than the find.

    Jim61 - Yep. There's a few sets I've been putting aside while trying to find this Treasury bill.
