Straight from my mother-in-law mattress...help with "old " banknotes.

[bellavite1]

Well, my mother-in-law decided to cash out her stashed money.
There are all kind of notes with older designs.
I guess a bank would exchange them for current notes.
What I am trying to figure out is if they have any value beyond nominal value.
I really don't know much about numismatic, and would not know who to ask without getting ripped off.
Anyone can help?
A few examples:

[SideShow Bob]

Only face value unless they are silver or gold certificate bills. And rare misprint bills that made it past QC.

And some ?red? seal bills. ( made until the early 1960s.)

[Little Dutch]

Agreed, face value for the four shown.

[Great-Kazoo]

I have franklin's much older than that. They're all face value.

[Ah Pook]

I have franklin's much older than that. They're all face value.

Of course you do. [Flower]

[bellavite1]

Oh well, any money is good money...
How about silver coins?

[bellavite1]

For instance there's a 1942 Walking Liberty (there's plenty more but I haven't had the chance to look into it yet).
According to the interwebs those are worth at least $7.80.
Where should I go to sell those ?
Any recommendations?

[bellavite1]

Also 1941 dime with a fascist symbol?

[Gman]

Silver coins are definitely more valuable.

Never realized that a young Liberty with a winged helmet was a fascist. I've always known them as Mercury dimes.

[bellavite1]

Not the liberty, the symbol on the other side, what we call in Italy "Fascio Littorio", originally a Roman symbol.

You might be able to find a prepper that would be interested in the old notes since they were printed before the magnetic ink and tracking strips...........

[BushMasterBoy]

I would hang on to the silver coins. Silver is at a low right now. Link below is the spot price of silver.

[bellavite1]

So, with silver coins are we looking more at the intrinsic metal value than collector value?
I have looked at some online and they are definitely above nominal.
Any reputable coin shop I can bring them to?

[rondog]

I've always gone to Dave's Gold and Silver Exchange in Denver, 548 S. Broadway. There's a bigger shop a couple doors north, but Dave is more personable and honest. Small time vs big time.

[BushMasterBoy]

I'd just sell them in the trading post section. Dealer is going to pay under market price and resell at a profit. I was going to sell some gold at a dealer and they were going to pay 25% less that spot.
How much silver do you have? I might be interested.

I'll send you a PM after I make an inventory.

[Wulf202]

Dave's is the best coin shop in the area but you'll do better selling them here.

Well dang, I went down the rabbit hole chasing the meaning.

It appears on the symbols for the US Senate and for Colorado.
A bundle of birch rods to beat the slaves, and an ax to kill them.
I learn something every day!

Also included 216 Dimes and 6 Nickels of various years (my eyes refuse any further strain).
They were refused by the Coinstar machine so I assume they are Silver, pre-1965.
Dimes and Nickels should be worth about $1.50 each (please do your research).
Selling as a lot only.

[BladesNBarrels]

Okay, I am now confused.

You listed the coins as sold and then in the next post you posted a detailed list of coins available for offers.
Is this a new batch of coins or did the sale not go through?
If these are available, you might also try listing them in the Trading Post under Non Firearm Items.

[bellavite1]

Sale did not go through, buyer on the fence, no commitment yet.

[bellavite1]

Sold!
