Oldest cent - really beaten up 1882 IHC

Oldest nickel worn nearly flat except for the date 1890 Liberty

Oldest dime - 1944

Oldest quarter 1939

Oldest half 1942 back in November

Oldest dollar coin - an 1897 Morgan I got in change at an A&W when I was about 10 years old - the customer in front of me in line had spent it and I bought it from the cashier.

 

Dollar bills:

 

$1 Series 1957 SC

$2 Series 1928-B LT

$5 Series 1928-A LT

$10 Series 1934

$20 Series 1928-B

$50 Series 1934

$100 Series 1934

$500 Series 1934-A

$1000 Series 1934

 

The last two I got from banks back in 2007-8. I live in an area with a lot of older residents and their stuff comes into banks occasionally.
