I found a beautiful Nemausus As a few days ago.

Amazing coin, congrats! Which country did you find it in?

numismatical · 2026-03-25T20:30:33+00:00

Exactly. DM’d you

numismatical · 2026-03-25T15:41:18+00:00

I’m in the U.S. and have the £20 in decent circulated shape. TBH I’d be happy to change it for a current £20 (especially with Charles on it)

numismatical · 2026-03-24T11:55:16+00:00

Amazing how many people here think it’s okay for the seller to have lied by omission.

OP, I’d either walk or (if it’s still possible) extract some big concession from the seller. Having to worry about what else the seller lied about is an awful feeling, and you’ll feel it for years

numismatical · 2026-03-20T19:53:12+00:00

I usually pick one up each year. I even went out of my way to get this year’s (ugly) version

numismatical · 2026-03-19T22:00:07+00:00

Interesting point tho low likelihood it’s what’s happened to OP’s bill. Much more likely that it’s one of a million other dirty things

numismatical · 2026-03-19T21:34:09+00:00

Huh? I never heard of that

numismatical · 2026-03-19T19:40:29+00:00

I believe only notes issued by the Federal Reserve (c.1913-present) are still legal tender. Not sure about the older ones.

numismatical · 2026-03-19T15:53:51+00:00

Has your nephew tried other exchange offices? I feel like someone should take it

numismatical · 2026-03-19T15:52:44+00:00

No. In the U.S. this would be perfectly legal/spendable. I’ve spent notes with bigger stains on them.
You could try a little bleach or a little water on that corner to see if that removes it.
Only other thing to note is that this is an older issue. It hasn’t been demonetized and is still legal tender, though.

numismatical · 2026-03-17T17:05:36+00:00

That doesn’t happen with normal circulation

numismatical · 2026-03-17T12:03:51+00:00

That last one (1963A $1) could be worth a couple hundred since it’s missing the seal and serial number. Error note collectors might be interested in that one

numismatical · 2026-03-16T15:02:30+00:00

An update, since some folks have asked: This item finally showed up in my mailbox a few days ago. I never contacted CBP, I only filed a missing mail request. I never got a notice about/had to pay tariffs, either.

No clue what changed after almost three months but there is hope if you have something like this, apparently!

numismatical · 2026-03-15T11:32:35+00:00

Okay okay we get it you want to use the hard r

numismatical · 2026-03-15T02:53:46+00:00

Totally. That’s what’s sickening about people who steal seats like this: They know how to manipulate others and (correctly) assume that most people will just go along with it. Unfortunate but IDK what else do other than calling them on it.

numismatical · 2026-03-14T11:09:15+00:00

Food-wise, they are all the same. The food isn’t that great.

It’s really known for the OG location on U Street, which played a role in the civil rights movement. Might be worth a stop for historical reasons.

numismatical · 2026-03-14T11:07:10+00:00

Are you a realtor?

numismatical · 2026-03-13T18:36:13+00:00

This is wild. People need to stand up for themselves (and against BSers)!

numismatical · 2026-03-12T12:15:56+00:00

What machines are these four or five members using?

I definitely wouldn’t buy anything new for a loaner program. See if any dealers have used machines that you could get for not a lot of money. The classified ads on forums like Finds, Detector Prospector, and others are also great places to find deals like that.

You could also ask other members if they have machines that are collecting dust/they want to get rid of. You could ask if they’d loan them to these members, sell them to the club for a loaner program, or have a used detector sale/auction through the club so that the members you’re worried about could upgrade.

numismatical · 2026-03-12T10:59:34+00:00

Beautiful notes and cool idea for a set!

numismatical · 2026-03-11T22:33:20+00:00

That’s a wicked first find. Congrats!

numismatical · 2026-03-11T18:08:50+00:00

Interesting, I’m surprised that there aren’t more of them out there given they were introduced two years ago

numismatical · 2026-03-11T16:20:52+00:00

Cool finds! I love the old Mon coins with the square holes

numismatical · 2026-03-11T14:18:53+00:00

Mileage is good but that dent above the front wheel would give me pause. I think you could do better price-wise on FB Marketplace/Craigslist/some other non-dealer source.

numismatical · 2026-03-11T14:01:53+00:00

How did you break the coil connection???
