    That's when the serial number is a numerical "palindrome", that is, when the serial is read the same left-to-right as right-to-left. For example:

    12344321
    23155132
    99822899

    and so on... The word "radar" is itself an example.

    a radar note is a note that has a serial number that reads the same backwards and forwards... A12344321A would be a radar. On radar notes, the letters do not always have to match... so A12344321B woudl also be considered a radar ... however, radars where the letters are also included fetch higher premiums.

    Like what everyone said...radar serial is a serial number that when you read from left-to-right is the same from right-to-left. (IN GENERAL)

    There's a special type of radar serial called "SUPER RADAR". Super Radar is when the serial number contains only two different numbers; all those digits inside the number are ALL identical and the first and last numbers of the serial are the same but different from interior numbers.

    My example of a Super Radar that is also a ROTATOR:
    Serial 80000008!
