my first star note(s)

So I've been looking for star notes since I learned about them here on Cointalk. Nothing...

Then yesterday, I not only found my 1st star note on a dollar bill, it was immediately followed by a well used $5 star note.

When it rains, it pours (stars that is).

I also found my best radar bill but let it go because the two center digits were not consistent.

I also bought my first gold coin... and I have just finished up my type sets in Franklins and Kennedys.

Just thought I'd share...

Good work! congrats! on the star note finds.
Now that your Kennedy's and Franklins are complete, where do you plan to focus for to obtain your next victory?

I am wrapping up my walking liberty halves, (with the recent purchase of the '16) and I am looking for my last two standing liberty quarters, the 23s and 24s to complete that set. Then its on to Washington quarters and dollars!

Thanks for asking.

stars note abound eh'?

i can understand letting a 'near' radar go! i see so many notes that are 7 digit radars, or 1 number off where if i had the next note in the bundle SHAZAMM. they are illusive!!! 1 in 10,000 is not a ton, but considering how many notes are printed - they do add up!

It has been several months since I found my last circulated star note. Good finds.
