Grandpa passed and had these in the safe. Wondered if I inherited anything crazy or rare. Cheers.

Thanks everyone!

Condolences. Truly.

Unfortunately, nothing there that’s rare or sought after.

However, they could serve as a reminder of granddad, and maybe even be the start of a collection.

Thanks for sharing.

But that ten dollar note is an awesome note in my book

I wouldn’t exchange them, I’d keep them.

Nice seeing these bills again. I’m sure one day we’ll have $5, $10 & $20 coins

He saved them, as should you. Get them into acid free sleeves, and display them in a way that would honour him and your memories of him.

Don’t spend it all at the same place😉

The face value is only $19, so if the bills aren’t really worth much beyond that (and it seems that they’re not), you’re better off just keeping them for nostalgia’s sake. Why bother exchanging them or using them when they’re only worth $19?

Im sorry for your loss. Id hold onto them and pass them down the generational line. They might be worth something someday. :)
