1000 Dollar Bills

August 5th, 2008

These days for the most part people will use a credit card to pay for just about anything that they buy. The only time that they might even think about using cold hard cash is when whatever they require might be of a very small value, and even then only if they?ve remembered to bring any change along with them. What they probably wouldn?t even think about doing though is to pay for any goods with 1000 dollar bills. Yes, you did read the amount correctly. The dollar bill that we are talking about is a thousand dollar bill and it is a genuine United States government issued dollar bill. This dollar bill is one that you will hardly ever see in circulation, or perhaps ?never see? is the correct term. While the general public will not get to see these 1000 dollar bills there is a 100 dollar bill used in Las Vegas that can be seen quite regularly.

Coin Collecting Is Great Entertainment

June 18th, 2008

Old money collectors of the paper variety, though not quite as common as coin collectors, still are active and manage to find some rare items from time to time. This variety could include pre US colonial currency, obsolete money from the 1800s, currency from the Confederate States of America, and souvenir cards of old money that’s too rare to actually find and purchase.


One such coin collector’s item in old money is called fractional currency. During and after the Civil War, the United States began to run short on change so started printing paper money worth less than a dollar. 50 cents, 25 cents, 15 cents, 10 cents and 5 cents were all denominations printed because of the lack of coins. They are now much sought after collectibles.
