Making money...with money!

[nastygunz]

As a practicing numismatist I am going to show you how to make money with money. Anytime you get paper money check the serial number on it to see if it has a little tiny star behind it or in front of it, this is known as a star note, it is collectible, and it can sell for higher than the face value of the money:

It's kinda funny what makes money worth more.  I had a $1,000 dollar bill for years and when I was looking at it one day I checked it's serial number on some site and found out it was a replacement note.  Put it on Kijiji for $1,500 and sold it in minutes.  Same guy bought a bunch of fake money the Chinese used to train their bank tellers for the olympics that I had bought for humor but sold for good coin.  Makes me think there is toooooooooooo much money in the world.

 Always check your change for 1964 and older quarters nickels and dimes because they are 90% silver! I just found five Nickels today in the change on the dash of my truck

I am not a collector but some years ago, when my kids were little, they asked about the different denominations of U.S. bills so I got these together to show them.  I never had, or even saw a $5000 or $10,000 bill.
