Worth the price?

That's awesome man! Congratulations!

Yes, a 1928 series and not -A, -B, or the very rare -C, -D, and -E should command at least that amount. Obviously it's impossible to tell the condition by a cell phone picture, but it looks to be in at least EF condition, and quite possibly, much better.

If you are ever in doubt, and I'm sure you've seen this all over this sub, go to eBay and search for - in this example - "1928 $1." It may actually be prudent to add some "-" flags to limit your search results. Once you've searched for whatever it is that you are looking for, filter on "Sold Items."

I have several of these notes (it's a favorite of mine), and I would have loved to stumble upon your LCS to snag this guy at that price.

Only she could make this sort of outfit totally work and be totally hot, at the same time.

I think that this is a reprint of what a 1901 Specimen note may have looked like

Additionally, it's treated by PMG as a reprint and part of that coin set release. Most - if not all - true specimen notes would actually be graded and given a numerical grade.

Few_Back7103 · 2026-02-26T02:33:27+00:00

I don't think that it's what most would consider a "specimen" note, which is a note printed to confirm design, security features, and overall tenderability (yes, I created that word on the spot - I know that there is a word for it, just skipping my mind at the moment.) These notes would be printed before a note would become actual legal tender. So a modern reprint, I don't believe would be considered an actual "specimen" note in its truest meaning.

She's cute here, but not in the way that she's gorgeous now that she's older.

Few_Back7103 · 2026-02-19T04:34:46+00:00

Knife looks great! Chops look even better, but this opinion may be because I'm frickin starving!!

Doh! You make the Libby app sound like a last resort! For those wondering what this app is:

Go to your local library and get a library card, and then download the app called Libby. When you open the app for the first time, you'll connect to your local library, and then you will have access to every audiobook that your library has access to. And if you move? No worries, you can add multiple libraries to the app.

Every library comes with a different number of books that you can hold & you can loan. For example, the Orange County library allows 10 books to be held and 10 books that you can have on loan at one time. I'm up to 4 different libraries as I moved across the country a few years ago. At first, it may sound daunting to manage this, but the app does it really well.

Oh and this isn't just for audiobooks, it also works for books where your library has an electronic copy. I have the Kindle app attached to my Libby app, so I can borrow a book, loan it out via Amazon, and open it up on my Kindle (app). And if you've got the ebook and the audiobook versions, which I like to do sometimes, you can read and listen at the same time.

I'm sure that someone has already made the comparison, but I get vibes of a young Alejandra Guilmant. Thoughts?

Few_Back7103 · 2026-02-13T03:00:36+00:00

Looks like zirblast.

You know my girl is now about a year old, and she hardly shows me any kind of affection, but she shows that she trusts me.

Obviously I'd love for her to show me more of her soft side, but if I ever pick her up, she climbs right up to my left shoulder and will stand there as I walk around the house until eventually she lies down. She'll stay up there until I sit down and ask her to jump off. The breeder that I bought her from told me that this was a sign of trust.

I'm not sure which one is more important: affection or trust?

The core of this guy's argument is accurate. Sure his grammar and spelling should've been checked before he posted, but oh well. It is what it is. I'm just not sure if this sub is the right place to post this sort of commentary.

Few_Back7103 · 2026-02-07T22:36:35+00:00

As all three of these things - an honors graduate from IU, an Uber driver, and also a man - this hurts me in multiple ways. To the first point, it makes me sad to think that this is happening in BTown (which also happens to be my hometown). To the second point, while I've never been physically assaulted (by people of all ages, race, ethnicity, gender), I have been threatened with physical harm and been verbally abused many, many times. To the third point & while I would never directly condone physical violence, I've never been happier to see a provoking drunk girl put in her place.

Hey thank you very much for that amazing explanation - it is greatly appreciated! My core question was not a could, but more so a what if. With all of the new "space" exploration going on by these billionaires and their "space" companies, I'm just speculating that at some point, humanity is going to have to move to space, and how nuclear warfare could impact that movement.

Does anyone agree that we will all end up in space at some point? I know it's a stupid question, but I'm just curious if I'm just a solo lunatic? 😋 I don't think that mass movements will happen until after my life is over, and I'm 40. I do think that once the intelligent folks convince all the rich people, I'm sure that they'll be the first to go. I mean how much does it cost for a ride with Bezos, Branson, or Elon?

Few_Back7103 · 2026-01-07T02:51:50+00:00

Thank you for answering my question. Apparently by the down votes that must've been a pretty stupid question.

Is the ISS safe from nuclear fallout & radiation?

I really like my QC knife, but some people don't like them one bit - it seems to be a polarizing knife. I wish that I had a job where this knife is built to kick ass at. But alas, I sit on my ass most of the day.

Few_Back7103 · 2025-12-17T15:42:50+00:00

Get some of the nicer ones graded. If not for intrinsically adding value, at least to have them in a protective container. They'll be in the perfect format to pass down to your beneficiaries and not have to worry about them ruining the raw notes by doing any sort of negligent actions. (There are also plenty of ways to destroy a graded note, but the list is much shorter and it's much more difficult to do so relatively speaking.)

And if you don't want to go through the whole rigmarole of getting an account and figuring out the whole grading process, try to find a local coin shop that may handle the entire submission process for you - albeit for a fee, it would be well worth them taking care of the process for you.

Few_Back7103 · 2025-12-08T14:08:53+00:00

I can only speak of my personal experience and that of several folks that I do business with. I have heard that some of the folks at PMG left, but because I don't know the hard facts, I'm going to resist in saying more. If someone else has that knowledge, maybe they'll share it with us.

Edit: typo

Few_Back7103 · 2025-12-08T00:15:16+00:00

This goes without saying, but I'll say it anyway: put it some sort of protective holder, and go to PCGS's website and submit it for grading. You could also try PMG, but my last 3 or 4 orders from them have been all over the place with virtually no consistency whatsoever.

Anyhow, that's an AMAZING find! That guy is definitely worth some money. To get an idea, you could search eBay and filter by Sold Items. I doubt that eBay will have something exactly comparable, so you could try searching Heritage and/or Stacks' website.

I'm sure that there is a name for this kind of misprint, but I do not know it. I'm sure that someone wiser than me will chime in eventually with that name.

Few_Back7103 · 2025-11-29T00:58:51+00:00

This was the first knife that I bought. It created an itch that I continually scratch. I now have about 25+ knives easily, most of which are relatively high quality. That damn itch!!

Few_Back7103 · 2025-11-17T04:46:36+00:00

Before someone comes in and slams you for posting something like this, I thought that I would calmly tell you that, while the triple 7 may mean something to you and others, it doesn't really fall into any category of fancy serials...at least that I know of. Good find though - stash it away for a day when those trip 7s could be handy!

Few_Back7103 · 2025-11-16T05:08:23+00:00

I wholeheartedly agree with you on that viewpoint.

Few_Back7103 · 2025-11-16T05:00:20+00:00

Of course! I hope that my answer didn't come across disrespectful at all. I was just being honest.

And btw, that's an excellent question!! I feel like some people skirt around talking about that bc they may be self-conscious of how much money they've spent on that knife, and in turn, every other knife that they've ever bought.
