Need help with a silly bet I lost..lol


Recommended Posts

Posted

I made a bet with a forum member here........I lost. 

 

The bet was to pay the winning person a dollar. The only stipulation was that it is a dollar dated with the year 2001 (my stupid idea).

 

Simple enough, yes? As it turns out...no it isn't. lol. Banks have tried to help, man at the gas station, the cashier at the hospital, even my Mom. Nothing. There are tons of 2009, 2006 and even 2003...no 2001's. What gives???? I even found a 1999....I keep it in my desk for the next bet. lol.

 

Its been a quest for a few months, and now, I call on my buddies here on the forum to help me out. Oh....speaking of buds...its Budstruck that I lost to. My beloved 49ers lost to his stinkin Seahawks.

 

 

I'm at my wits end and hope somebody's got an '01 hiding somewhere. Pleeeease! I will happily trade a truck part or two just ta come up with one of the dang things. :lol:

Did you specify paper dollar? If not I bet you can find a dollar coin with 2001 easily.

 The 2001 printing was a lower # than many years of printing, and the life of paper money being somewhat short lived the 2001 is not found as prevalently as some others.

 

As I am sometimes accused of having the first dollar that I ever made. I have 2 of them. They were in my roll of "firewood" sales money. I have not sold firewood in 4-5 years :)

 

 

Edit: had a 1995 as well.  3 - 1957's stored by my printer along with a $10  -dated 1934

I will send you a 2001 Loonie, the Canadian one dollar coin. You didn't say it had to be a US dollar. You can have the coin and postage gratis just for fun. PM if interested.

....and this!!! The last one is a "modified" idea from Ed, I guess. lol 

 

You guys are great, and by the time Bud reads this OT, he'll have already recieved his payment!

I took me almost as long to find this thread as it did to find 2 x Australian 2001 $1 coins for you Tim. I'll even hand-deliver them to you in April 2014 !!
