At my local Publix there is a machine that is similar to a Coinstar, but not as fancy. It takes coins and gives out a receipt that you take to the register to get cash. Today I cashed them in and got this. It's a 1985 $5.00 bill in circulated condition. It is the oldest $5.00 bill I have found (the $5.00 bill on both sides of this post is a silver certificate that I bought). There is no watermark or security strip on this bill meaning there are fewer ways to detect its authenticity. There are silk threads in it so I'm almost completely certain it's not a counterfeit bill. It is worth only $5.00 with 332,800,000 made.
