I just joined. I collect antique paper money/currency
« on: December 18, 2013, 07:08:51 pm »
I am always looking to add to my collection. If any of you folks are collectors or selling some old paper money please let me know. I enjoy a lot of antiques but old u.s. Paper money and documents are my main focus. I live just outside of Boston.
I am looking forward to getting to know some of you folks.
Thanks
Brian

Sound Interesting !! Welcome to the forum !!  We do not buy or sell on this site but would be interested to hear about your collection !! You can post pics also if there is anything you care to show !!
How did you get into paper money as opposed to coins and such ??

I collect current paper money.... not very far along with my collection yet...
Check this out... Probably at least 200 years old based on the amount of garbage that was in the dumpster around it.
