New Purchases - Modern Stuff!

I mostly post 1928 and 1934 notes, but I actively collect modern also.

I actively collect bp 129 errors, and here is a new one for my collection. Also posted a low number $1 FRN 2009 H-Star, which is now considered a better note. I also purchased the $5 1969-B L-Star, which is the last note I needed to have the star set in CU.

Gorgeous notes! The SF 69B* is killer.

KT5Silver · January 22, 2016 11:52AM

Congrats on those three notes. 69B* is especially nice.

Jim61 · January 22, 2016 12:08PM

They all are very nice notes! Congrats!

Pardon my ignorance, but what is the error on the bp 129 note?

Back in the summer of 1985, BP 129 was engraved on the wrong side of the plate. The back plate number normally appears on the lower right. It affected some 1981A and 1985 $1 FRN's. I believe it may be considered a mule on the 1985's.

I agree--very nice!

This new forum format is driving me nuts. Trying to include an image, then only the html code shows up. Yet I posted the other day without any problem. AND no preview? So without the preview I have to delete the message and start over again. But now I can't even reply. I've refreshed the browser and gone back to the main page but still no joy.

Nice additions Jim.

Your L* is from the same group as mine !! Very Nice !!

Make sure your image URL is http, not https. If it is https, the html code shows instead of the image.

I gave up on the insert image icon thingy.

I just paste the image URL into the message, then add:

[ IMG ] before the URL (no spaces) and [ /IMG ] after the URL (no spaces)

No spaces between the brackets or the URL.

Eliminates a lot of frustration for me anyway.

Thanks Daveu and Jim61 for the tips. The weird thing is that I tried a number of times but no good. Then I inserted the URL into the image thingy and it worked. Although I've done it the way Jim61 mentioned in the past and it worked.

Jim61 · January 23, 2016 7:19AM

As long as you find a way that works for you! Nice $20!

techwriter · January 23, 2016 7:42AM

really nice $20 Star note.

some time ago I picked up a 1981 129 error serial number H81857476B PCGS 65 Gem if you are interested, Does anyone know the population or the value.

SmallSizedGuy if you are interested, contact me directly. It is in the s/d/b at the local bank, if you need a pic I can get it out to accommodate.

Also while I have your attention, I am desperate looking for the following 1957 S/C blocks, I will also pay a finders fees for anyone that can lead me in the right direction.

PLEASE contact me directly through e-mail, I have been hustled out of notes in the past.

I am certainly with the class that the 69B is very desirable!

I also really like the H*. Is it UNC? looks like it could be...

I know I have lost out on a 3 digit one (maybe this one?) and I believe I lost out on a 2 digit one a few months ago. I am better at buying than keeping records... LOL

Has anyone seen a 1 digit?

SmallSizedGuy · January 26, 2016 8:05AM

The H-Star is CU. From a consecutive group. These are the lowest serial numbers I have seen.

gnat · January 26, 2016 10:04AM

Jim,

My 1969B $5 L-* is a few numbers from your's (and John's) too. Must have been a nice run of notes.

Maxcrusha · January 26, 2016 10:18AM

Jim - I consigned the 00000743 with the 742 and 744 to LKA... they're peaches! congrats!
