Something that I hate about the current state of the internet when trying to learn something is how you'll do a search, click on a link that sounds like it should go to a knowledgeable site, see, oh hey, lots of info! Lots of subsections! I should learn something!
And then you read, and you read, and you want to give up but keep reading just in case, because it turns out that it's saying the exact fucking thing 10 ways to Sunday. Each paragraph is an introductory paragraph to the content they never get to.
A lady paid for her prescription with some silver certificates the other day, and I was curious, so I searched silver certificate value, clicked on a link, and
Did you ever wonder what a silver certificate is worth? It depends on a few things! Guess what, a silver certificate, which you could originally use to exchange for its face value in silver, could be worth more than just the number on the bill. Which ones are worth the most? Keep reading and we'll explain the things that affect it's value even though a silver certificate used to be guaranteed against real silver you can't exchange them any longer but they might still be worth qui
I just wanted a rough average of what a 1954 Silver Certificate might get. Like maybe $1.50? Maybe even $2 entire dollars? Never fucking found out. Every "subsection" was the same shit with different phrasing.
There are sites like this for plants, there are sites like this for antique restoration, for DIY crafts, there are sites like this for everything I've recently just wanted a brief overview of, and while I know they've always existed, it feels like it's gotten exponentially worse in the last year or so. It's all search engines, it's so many sites. I know there are genuine actual hobbyists out there who can ACTUALLY summarize the origin and current values of silver certificates out there, but good luck finding them under all these repetitive, poorly proofread, likely AI vomit that's unfortunately been boosted by competent SEO while the actual honest individuals who want to share knowledge are driven to the bottom of the search results.
