Its the US stuff thats highly collectable (silver notes, gold notes, etc) especially old old stuff when the paper currency was BIG - they call the large bills blanket currency. BUT there is no such thing as a US federal reserve note going out of date. You cold take an 1899 black eagle silver certificate to teh bank and exchange it for a buck - you would be stupid but you could still do it. Theres a reason you see the non-us stuff hanging on walls in restaraunts.
