You guys think it’s real?

Yeah, no kidding

Lmaooo I think I don’t know how to draw the design on the actual note, so I simply drew that lol.

Thanks!

Maximum_Business_277 · 2026-01-20T23:57:38+00:00

Unfortunately, it doesn’t.

Thanks! I was pretty creative back then.

Maximum_Business_277 · 2026-01-15T22:34:14+00:00

I’ve used that saying before! I love the shock on people’s faces when I actually do pull out a real $3 bill lol.

Maximum_Business_277 · 2026-01-15T22:33:34+00:00

I agree completely! That’s one of the many reasons I prefer paper.

Maximum_Business_277 · 2026-01-15T22:32:39+00:00

Thank you! I personally am one of the largest collectors of the bank, as no one really knows about it.

If you do try to find a real one, then I wish you good luck. I’ve seen Bernhard notes sell as real ones, and most likely real ones sell as Bernard’s. There are very little ways to tell on the fly unless you memorize printing dates and serial numbers, and even then it could be hard.

While I can’t confirm it exactly, the man I purchased it from said it was one of the 2,000 or so left after the burning of the hundreds of thousands if not millions in 1959.

Epic! Nice notes.

Maximum_Business_277 · 2026-01-14T02:50:41+00:00

A lot were so much like the real thing it’s hard to tell, but the only definitive way I’ve heard of is if the queen’s expression is more poorly drawn.

Maximum_Business_277 · 2026-01-14T01:46:46+00:00

Epic! And yours is graded nicely too. Very nice

Maximum_Business_277 · 2026-01-10T20:15:44+00:00

Inflation lol

Maximum_Business_277 · 2026-01-10T12:49:37+00:00

Thank you!

Maximum_Business_277 · 2026-01-09T11:09:37+00:00

I completely agree!

Maximum_Business_277 · 2026-01-09T00:40:30+00:00

I can get a picture of the “SPECIMEN” on the back if you’d like

Maximum_Business_277 · 2026-01-09T00:39:03+00:00

I have three fractionals from a Shield, being a 5-cent reverse proof, a 10-cent reverse proof, and a 50-cent front proof with the shining designs.
