We have a dollar bill with a star after the ID. Pictures are below. Can you tell us what this is worth? Thanks in advance
It depends very much on its date and condition. Star notes are notes that are printed to re-use the serial number of a bill that was damaged during production, so for something as common as a $1 bill a star note is unlikely to be worth much more than the value of a standard note with the same date UNLESS the bill is either very old and/or in uncirculated condition. Here is a good example of an older 1969 * note. But because of condition issues such as the creases (fold marks) it lowers the value.
I don't believe this is accurate.......The BEP does not re-use serial numbers of damaged currency. They used to, way back when, but it took too much effort and time.
No 2 notes in a series can have the same serial number. Eventhough one is destroyed, they can't reuse that number. Hence the reason for the star.
