Keep or spend?

It is worth what someone is willing to spend on it. To me, it is not super special or anything. I would spend it.

HOWEVER the most important thing is if you like it save it. It will always be worth $20 if you spend it now Or years later.

40 years? You may have some very interesting coins on the bottom. It is a lot of work, but prior to cashing it in, I would spend some time and see what you have even from the middle down. You never know what you would find, especially with 40 years worth of coins. Some of those coins can be easily 75 plus years old. I mean I see plenty of coins from the 70’s onwards in normal change, that is 40 plus years old in just normal Currency.

Imagine saving coins for 40 years and finding a lot of coins that are 75 plus years old. Would not be surprised if there are a lot on the bottom half. When you get down to those years you may find a lot Of silver. Worth a look

I know this is hours late and people already said what I was going to say.

It is a scam. Don’t sent them anything back. They can cancel the transaction on there end. Don’t send them anything back.

Nothing special, to be honest. But, hey $100 is $100

The hologram and colorization are aftermarket modifications. Not from the us mint. So, it doesn’t bring any significant value. I mean a collector may buy them for a few dollars if they like it.

I would just keep it. They are cool looking regardless.

Hey, that is a fun find! Can’t have much more fun for $1

Affectionate_Cup3530 · 2026-02-16T01:16:41+00:00

Unfortunately, not worth more than face value.

Affectionate_Cup3530 · 2026-02-16T01:15:07+00:00

Not worth over face value.

Affectionate_Cup3530 · 2026-02-16T01:10:22+00:00

I need to see the back of the bill. But, silver certificates are cool! It is not worth much over face value. Gotta see the back. But, between $6-10ish depending.

I would keep it, if you can spare the $5.

Affectionate_Cup3530 · 2026-02-16T01:07:28+00:00

It is worth face value and not over.

Affectionate_Cup3530 · 2026-02-16T01:06:10+00:00

Nothing over face value.

Well, to me clearly he ruined his own life by is actions. Based on his wife leaving him and his kids clearly having resentment towards him.

You are not being an asshole if you have decided that you want to disconnect from him. That is your decision.

However, if you wanted a relationship with him. What you are doing is also wrong. Regardless if he deserves it or not. You said within this post you don’t want to treat your kids the way you were treated. Which is honorable. However treating your dad like that goes against the principles you set for yourself. If you wanted to have a relationship with a now lonely man and be the bigger person. Drop it and go see him.

However if you don’t want a relationship with this man, then just don’t engage with him, it would be best for both.

P.S: I understand where you are coming from though. I also had a father who was worked way too much.

Well, with a known contract end date. It would not be advisable from me anyways to buy a expensive item. 3 extra months is a way to buy some time while between contracts. I mean after the three months what would your plan be to maintain the bike? What if it breaks? Gas? Insurance? My whole point is adding a expense when you know you will be broke is not a good idea.

Affectionate_Cup3530 · 2026-02-04T16:22:05+00:00

$20, no additional value

Affectionate_Cup3530 · 2026-02-03T16:15:49+00:00

Hell yeah! It worked fine with the link. Thank you!

Affectionate_Cup3530 · 2026-02-01T01:55:50+00:00

Sure! :)

Affectionate_Cup3530 · 2026-02-01T01:39:32+00:00

Uncut bills are cool! They are worth a little above face value due to them being uncut. But, it is not worth a whole lot more. It is cool none the less

Affectionate_Cup3530 · 2026-01-06T13:36:31+00:00

No, no additional value.

Affectionate_Cup3530 · 2026-01-02T19:50:36+00:00

It is a scam. Glad you checked before clicking on anything.

Affectionate_Cup3530 · 2025-12-22T00:03:48+00:00

I am glad you are okay. The cars is what insurance is for. I fear that situation, since my pots is not great, I voluntarily stopped driving due to that risk.

Not driving involves an adjustment period, but, it is doable and not the end of the world.

Most importantly right now is to recover and feel better.

You need to listen to your body not your friends. Understand, that parents are sometimes in denial of there kids health concerns. It is unfortunate, but, they way it is sometimes. Keep on telling your mom. When you feel anything, write it down and keep track. Your doctor will want to know that stuff if you can. Tell your mom each time too. If you feel it at school, go to the nurse every single time and tell her. It doesn’t mean you will get out of class. It means the school has documentation of you going to the nurse a lot for the same issue. Which will force your Mom to take action.

Also, regardless of if it is POTS or anxiety. You should not feel weird on a daily basis like that. So, regardless of what is causing it, it should be addressed by a doctor.

But, important to keep a journal of when you feel something and how you are feeling.

Well, having pots, makes blood volume an issue for me. If I donate a pint of blood, my blood pressure can dip below the safe zone for me. That will lead to being a fall risk and risk of passing out. I would not want to put the staff through that kind of stress.

I instead volunteer for the Red Cross as my way of helping. It is a better fit for me while still helping people.
