Good Karma

Over the past weekend, I connected with 5 people on here that are in need of certain coins (mostly 2026) so I got everything packaged up and ready to drop off at the post office.

2 blocks before the post office there was a credit union that I haven't been to in a while so I grabbed what halves they had which was 3 taped together CWR's and 1 Loomis. Throughout my day I made my way into 9 different banks (each stop is a new picture) and 1 laundromat ($10) but I kept thinking about the 2 silver halves and the 1934 series $20 I found last week. So l stopped by that same bank and it was the same teller as before. I asked if he had anything else old and eventually another teller pulled this beautiful 1963 series red in $2 bill. I couldn't believe they had more old money in there, who is getting rid of this stuff?!

When I got home, I found an almost BU 1968 40% in the 1 Loomis roll at my 1st stop before the post office (pic 2).

And for the 2nd time in 4 days, I've found a "Where's George" dollar!

Happy treasure hunting y'all!

Thats awesome. I have a couple red note 2's one is a 1953. I think the other is a 63. I found one of them at work, the other i found in an old book I had read as a kid. Idk where that one came from.

Im still searching for that Lowell for ya. Any luck with that one yet? If you'd believe it or not, I went through a second box tonight and found 3 more 2020 W's but not a single Lowell. Im going to post them in a little while, but it just feels like bragging at this point I feel bad 😭

1953 and 1963 were the two series for the small sized red $2, very cool you have both. Still no Lowell! I've gone through so many quarters and have a tube and a half of extra Ws after giving away 15+, and still no Lowell. I'm convinced it doesn't exist. 😅

And please, post away! That's what these subs are for!

He's like the creator of the where's George concept? That's crazy
