I needed to look something up so I pulled out a textbook. As I'm flipping through it, I found two very crisp 1 yuan bills. I bought this textbook brand new.

Where did they come from?

Oh yeah, I remember now. I loaned this book to a Chinese girl who took it to China with her.

Man, this thread sucks.

It's wasn't a new textbook, they shrunk wrapped my pristine used copy! Give me back my 2 Yuan bill! :|

Send a SASE and expect a 2-6 week delivery.

Also the bills may have a distinctive odor when you get them.

Congratulations, you found something like 25 cents! Don't spend it all in one place.

I collect foreign money. I find coins every so often, but not paper. That's a cool find :^)

Hold onto them. When China cashes in our debt, you'll technically be entitled to 1x10^(-eleventy billion) of it

Was the guy behind the counter sort of doing a *wink wink* when you bought the book on Anatomy of the Human Penis?
