My oldest bill is a 1934 $10 silver certificate. My oldest coin is a 1911 wheat penny, but it's pretty beat up.

Also, your grandfather was very lucky to have found a piece before the 1900's. That would be definitely worth a great deal of money, in any grade.

Haha, that's fine I sometimes mistake strange looking coins for something valuable too. Who knows, you might find something valuable if you keep searching. If you do, please post or pm me!

Yep, fairly valuable coin you got there. Mexican peso.

2 pesos are approximately 15 United States Cents.

On a side note I have a 5 dollar bill from the 1920's it says redeemable in gold". Haven't gone to the bank to ask if I can get $5 worth of gold on it, but doubt it will work if I do.

Is it a red seal note? I'm assuming a gold certificate from 1928 would be somewhere along those lines. In fact, I remember you talking about receiving a gold $5 note last time I posted about numismatics. It's in almost perfect grade, right?

Hold onto that yo, that would be worth a really valuable price. Or give it to me :D

Friends, right?

Zil how would I find out if a certain coin is real? I found this old Spanish coin when I was like 8 years old, buried in this park that was really active during the American Revolution. On one side it says FERDND VI - D - G - HISPAN - ET IND - RHX and on the other VTRAQUE VNUM - M - 1748. I never actually bothered to check out if it was real, I liked the idea of not knowing and having this ancient coin just sitting in my wallet.

Hmm, I didn't know a 1928b gold specimen existed. The only 1928 kinds I know are exclusively red. Can you show me what that bill looks like? You musta either been a hella good customer at the bank, or they're just jipping you.

Haha I never answered your old question, but I think you're misinterpreting. It's not made from actual gold... just says redeemable in gold. My parents got it from the bank by "mistake". The lady said she would get a new one because she hadn't noticed it was so old/ruined. But my parents said the bill was fine and now its here with me.
