Ebay?  Ask the seller what the serial # is, before you make a bid.

"If Congress can employ money indefinitely to the general
welfare, they may take the care of religion into their own hands;
they may appoint teachers in every state, county, and parish, and
pay them out of the public treasury: they may take into their own
hands the education of children, establishing in like manner
schools throughout the Union: they may seek the provision of the
poor ... [all of which] would subvert the very foundations, and
transmute the very nature of the limited government established
by the people of America."
James Madison, 1789
