<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lvetterli, post: 9594170, member: 130&quot;][USER=5398]@Joan[/USER] Research that Wisconsin bill if you ever decide to sell it.&nbsp; After hubs passed I was left with his collection of odd pieces of currency one of which was a Federal Reserve bank note printed by a bank in Hemet, California. I listed it on ebay with an opening bid commensurate with others of the same denomination and condition, but I couldn&#039;t find any from the Hemet bank. I got a bunch of bids right away and an offer for what I thought was a ridiculous sum to end the sale early. I passed that and received an email from a fellow to wait for the end of the auction or, if I was going to take an offer, sell it to him. He ended up being high bidder and informed me that I had quite a rare bill. A $5 note that sold for well over $1000! I don&#039;t remember how much exactly, it&#039;s been probably 8 or 9 years but it was certainly a bucket more than I expected. Good luck! And that&#039;s a sweet sewing box, wish I was closer to that thrift store, I&#039;m in southern Wisconsin almost at the Illinois border. </p><p><br /></p><p>Linda[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
