Default Nice find from the folks at 7-11

Stopped to pick up something to drink about noon, and as the cashier
started to give me my change, she stopped and looked at the $5--all I
could see was the "old style" back. I asked her what was wrong and
she said "I think this is counterfeit--the numbers are all in red".
Of course, I told her it wasn't a problem, so she gave it to me.

Series 1963 USN--only about VG condition, but it's a star note.

That, and getting a new client for my consulting business, made it a
pretty good day.

take care,
Scott

7-11's can be a good place, like a bank, to get in good with the cashiers.
You would be amazed how many people will spend something they saved, when
they need that cigarette or slurpee fix.

I know, I had to ante up some slurpees for my ankle nippers and when the
change drawer opened, I saw silver, in the form of half dollars which
merrily came home with me.
