How nice is my teller. On Wednesday she asked me what I looked for and today, trolling for half dollars (came up empty), she saved me this. I now have a teller looking for star notes, crisp bills, different color seals, etc., and she saves them for me. Woohoo!!!!

Looks like you got to the source, good work. If you can get more tellers like that at multiple banks, it will be like a MLM. With all the goodies going to you!

Are the star notes worth a lot? Even a $1? I work at a bank and have seen maybe one or two of these, and never thought twice about it. On second thought, maybe I don't want to know if they are, lol

some of them aer worth quite a bit. www.uspapermoney.info is a good site to check which notes have lower printings. Yours came from 1 of 5 print runs for the NY district and has the second highest printings. I would keep it though, as it wouldn't cost much to hold on to.

So far I am keeping all of my star notes......all 3 of them.
Hopefully, with this teller, I can get many more!

stars are fun to collect. At this point, because som many of us collect stars, they dont really fetch a premium .. but i keep all i canbecause 20 or 30 years from now... you never know what might happen but i just love collecting them. typicaly, they only represent about 1/2 of 1% of all notes printed. thats note all that many. Some folks look at a print run of 3.2 million as too many to care about... but with the average rate of attrition for US notes.. give that 3.2 million print run a couple decades.. and there wont be all that many left. the only ones left are the ones saved by folks like me, TheNoost, bobbeth67 and others
