Thanks for another cool video. You demonstrated nicely that a video doesn't have to involve finding a huge score to be entertaining and informative. And fun to watch!
@@PolarCurrency I went on eBay to buy you a bundle of south Africa notes but they’re expensive! I’m going to do my Friday inspection at the bank and I’ll see if I can order them there for you!
@@edwardsawtell5712 Too funny - and yeah I looked into "cheating" since daughter & new son-in-law failed me! I went to ebay to "cheat" and I couldn't find any packs.
As for having cash in our banks… people LOVE saying how the government prints money. Imagine how much LESS money would need you to be printed if we didn’t NEED billions of dollars just sitting there to make people feel safe.
I was recently shocked to learn that the most common denomination of USD in circulation around the world is the $100 bill, exceeding even the trusty $1 by a fair margin. I almost never see $100s being used in day-to-day life. Turns out, 80% of these $100s are almost immediately transferred overseas, where they just sit in bank vaults around the world, basically as a store of value and confidence against which other countries' notes can be issued. Almost makes you wish that the Treasury, the Fed, and the BEP could get together and make ultra-high denomination bills again, even if they were only issued to other central banks, to save on space and paper. On the bright side, the current "blue $100" will be easy to find in GU condition, 75 years down the line!
Hi Dan! Amazing video, as always! You will definitely get your stripe search at some point in the future!!! In the meantime you can enjoy your South Africa banknotes! These are very beautiful!!!
Hi Dan, 1st congratulations on your daughter and son in-law’s wedding. Thanks for the history lesson on your 1st strap search. At least you have a few different notes to add to your collection. Hope to see you Steve at the Schaumburg Coin show? I’m going on Thursday. Take care.🙏 Bill 😎
Great video Dan! Beautiful series of notes! They are very “cute” and as a girl dad I know “cute” is in your vocabulary 😂 Looking forward to more “Sidebar Fridays” 😎🤙🏼
Those south African bank notes are beautiful. It’s bit odd that countries that have corrupt officials or questionable human rights practices, also have nice, almost worthless bank notes.

Shawn - best comment in a while. Appreciate the kind words and that is my goal!
Another enjoyable video.
Thanks Mark - glad to hear that it's worth some peoples time. Even if it wasn't I would still do it. Just sayin'... :)
Great video!
Thanks! Appreciate it. Just trying to do some different things with a bit more of humor - well, what I think is humor!

Just laying around in banks! But I don't want you and Dennis hindered in getting your $1s!

@@squawkBirdies Yeah that is a surprsigin fun fact - and there will be plenty of them for collectors!
And congratulations on your daughter’s wedding, and getting her off your payroll!!
Thanks! One down two to go.
Great information. Congrats to the newlyweds !
Thanks Ontario - Daughter number 1 of 3 done...
I would have never thought about that. Love the sidebar within a sidebar 😂😂😂.
I know super ironic - thanks RNR!
You're a great storyteller, Dan! Very fun video. And yes, the animal families are "cute".
Hah! I go you to say "cute"! Thanks for the kind words and appreciate your help and support!
@PolarCurrency remember, I have 2 little ones, I have no problem saying "cute". 😅
No strap search, yet we are still eager for any content you are putting out. Great stuff Dan.
Thanks Gunny - probably will never be a straps search!? Appreciate the kind words and just looking to do something a bit different! (You know)
Those are pretty neat notes. Definitely no Minneapolis notes in those straps 🤪.
OK that got a LOL - not even close to our great State of Minnesota!
Great video Dan. I have to admit I had to pause and it minute to see the micro lion. Have a great weekend.
Yeah the micro lion isn't quite the same style as the others - good eye!
Hi Dan! Amazing video, as always! You will definitely get your stripe search at some point in the future!!! In the meantime you can enjoy your South Africa banknotes! These are very beautiful!!!
Thanks Roman! They are beautiful!
Awesome, just awesome :)
Thanks never know what's going to happen. Appreciate the support.

Hope to see you Steve at the Schaumburg Coin show? I’m going on Thursday.
Take care.🙏
Bill 😎
We are going! Hoping to be there by noon - and thanks for the kind words!
@@PolarCurrency You’re welcome. And sounds good. 👍

Thanks Dean - sadly you are correct about "cute". But I don't have to like it!. Appreciate your support my friend.
Womp womp womp eerrrr
Kids get kudos for trying
Thanks for the video Dan, Keep Stackin bro
It was a total Wah, wah, wahhhh moment when you texted me that video. But I got to make lemonade - at least to me! Thanks for the kind words!

Great looking notes - but there does seem to be a pattern.
nice video - sorry it didn't go the way you expected!
Probably a better video than if I did!
A strap search by you? Seriously? Wtf. I guess Stu finally flipped you to the dark side
I almost fell into it. Very thankful that South Africa doesn't have straps at the ready. A close call for sure!
@@PolarCurrency what else IS there to do in Minnesota other than strap searches (and eat pork chops)?!
