what do you got here I've got some of
[1]
these bills from the 19th century do you
[4]
know anything about them
[5]
I really don't what you have here is
[8]
education money
[9]
so like fund education or no it was just
[11]
to educate people about beautiful works
[13]
of art for the time that was really
[15]
risky to put bare breasts on bills yeah
[17]
I can see I decided to come to the pawn
[24]
shop today to sell some old currency I'm
[27]
kind of scared because I'm supposed to
[28]
be getting married in a month
[29]
and I spent seventy five hundred dollars
[32]
on this if I don't get my money back I'm
[34]
gonna have one pissed-off fiance
[36]
we have Bolton a dinner of Steamboat and
[39]
that's Morris right there
[41]
Morse code and it's like one of the few
[43]
bills were Martha Washington's on it in
[45]
1896 the US government issued silver
[48]
certificates that were educational notes
[50]
the reason they did this is because if
[52]
you lived in a rural community you would
[54]
never get to see Bart there were no
[56]
nearby museums so I figured hey let's
[58]
put him on money so where in the world
[60]
did you get these I was then in the
[61]
state sale I got caught up in this
[63]
auction and man I just really hope I can
[65]
make something out of it do you mind
[67]
telling me what you pay for him seventy
[69]
five hundred bucks
[70]
I'm always getting into some type of
[72]
trouble but this money is just it's
[76]
beautiful I mean it's the prettiest
[77]
paper money the United States ever made
[80]
and arguably some of the prettiest paper
[82]
money ever made in any country is the
[84]
artwork you know have anything to do
[86]
with the value of it well the rots one
[88]
of the reasons why these are so
[89]
collectibles but paper money is weird
[92]
the way it's graded there's 70 different
[94]
grades of a piece of paper money and the
[96]
grade on these things is so important
[98]
the difference between a 50 and a 55 is
[102]
thousands of dollars on a bill like this
[104]
wow this is worth anywhere from like
[106]
$200 to $25,000 really depending on the
[110]
grade depending on the condition of it
[112]
Wow yeah when we start talking money
[114]
like that I have to have someone look at
[115]
it let me call up a buddy of mine he
[117]
knows everything about this stuff so we
[119]
can get a better understanding of the
[121]
grade of them no problem this sounds
[123]
good this guy is out of pocket 7,500
[126]
bucks which makes me they're a genius or
[127]
an idiot so I'm gonna get my buddy
[129]
Leonard in here to have a closer look
[130]
and hopefully he'll have some good news
[132]
these are some important banknotes these
[136]
are silver certificates from 1896 this
[140]
is what we call the educational series
[141]
so they all mean something they all
[143]
means something this one is the one
[145]
dollar note this is history educating
[148]
youth you know a young country history
[150]
is going to educate us on the back
[153]
George and Martha the $2 note we've got
[157]
science electricity and steam on the
[161]
back we got Robert Fulton right Samuel
[164]
Morse ok the sciences is presenting
[167]
electricity and steam to commerce in an
[169]
industry okay in this one we've got
[172]
civil war heroes grant Sheridan in this
[176]
note shows electricity is the dominant
[180]
force in the universe
[181]
this is 1896 they figured that out and I
[184]
thought this was just a bunch of naked
[186]
women on a bill the grading of these
[189]
notes is what's important as far as
[191]
their value we're two notes used how
[193]
much were they used are they folded or
[195]
they stained are they crisp a nice and
[199]
bright here's what we got here the one
[201]
dollar note they got a centerfold right
[203]
here okay it's like it's hard to see but
[206]
it's there
[206]
this notes worth $700 two dollar notes
[213]
got a horizontal fold three vertical
[215]
folds this notes $2,500 a little better
[223]
this notes got a very light centerfold
[226]
it's the most desirable note of the
[229]
three this notice for
[240]
$7,500
[241]
a little over $10,000 for a lot thanks
[244]
letter anytime you take everybody 7500
[246]
turned out to be a decent gamble for
[248]
this guy because most notes I've seen
[249]
like this are beat to hell
[251]
they've been circulated but these are an
[253]
amazing shape there's no question I want
[255]
them so now let you know what they're
[257]
worth how much you want for him I'm
[259]
thinking 10 grand I'm thinking 8 grand I
[264]
just you know spent $7,500 on these and
[268]
the risk I you know took is just worth
[270]
more to me than $500 I'll let you make a
[275]
thousand bucks off me and not a dime
[277]
more
[277]
so 8,500 8,500 is it period okay you got
[283]
a thing man a thousand bucks is a good
[284]
profit on a complete gamble you know
[288]
what for $1,000
[297]
all right 8,500 core you want to write
[301]
him up he has good news in head court
[303]
I'm so glad I kept my poker face when he
[306]
started to grab him
[307]
I thought he was out the door
[317]
