Breitbart- An anonymous donor in Morgantown, West Virginia, dropped a rare and generous gift into a red Salvation Army kettle this week.
The unknown individual who slipped a $1,000 dollar bill printed in 1928 into the red bucket recently has been doing the same thing for the past 41 years, according to WBOY.
The $1,000 bill was first issued by the Continental Congress in 1775 to help finance the Revolutionary War, said Matthew Wittmann of the American Numismatic Society.
However, it was only worth a fraction of that value back then. more here
Dude! The mailbox is right there!
They need it! Salvation Army donations are down 24% this year. I have to believe it is largely due to the arm-twisting the Left is doing to corporations to keep the Salvation Army off their property in their relentless war on Christianity!
OK OK – – it was me.
I confess; it wasn’t me.
Billy Fuster; Monopoly money doesn’t count.
Someone in my area dropped a Kruggerrand in 2 different SA kettles last week. I believe the news said value of 6k total.
Great organization. Don’t have the giant managerial salaries these other so called charitable organizations have. Majority of your donations works as you would hope it would.
The article states a past value and a perfect condition worth, but no mention of its current recognized amount. So is it a 1K donation today?
Still, a very nice contribution indeed!
I’d laugh my ass off if it were counterfeit.
Did it have Trump’s picture on it?
TARGET doesn’t allow the Salvation Army to ring by the door.
What a bunch of gay-loving scumbags. I never shop at Target, and all the cars in the parking lot should have cracked windshields.
Walmart still welcomes SA; I make a point to drop something in every one I see. And the caroling bell ringer I met at Bass Pro had a beautiful voice.
