So I was browsing ebay for 90˘ Perry (#229), usually $30.-$100. sometimes a little cheaper ~HOWEVER~ I stumbled upon a lot of regular issues complete with my coveted #229 for $25.00! I bought it. I don't care so much about the other as I have many of those in much better condition so I think I done good anyhow!

What are your thoughts? Did I do all right?

Thank you S.V. but I don't need one anymore. Actually I'm looking through my binder and I'll be able to upgrade at least 2 out of the rest of that lot PLUS along with my new "1 centers" I got en route I'll be in good shape. The ones I actually need are a better #258 and still need 279, 282 & 284.

Nice selection Jeff. Looks like you are well on your way to that complete bureau set.

Yupperz! I got tired of always flipping past those pages real fast because of the many gaps to fill so, I sort of took the bull by the horns. I'll really take my time on the higher denominations however because for the money I'll have to spend for them I'm going to be really picky.
