Hi, I have been doing allot of research on error star notes since I came across this bill. All i can figure out is it seems as if they are rare. Is this something I should try to sell and if so whats a rough estimate. Thanks for any help!!!
I cannot comment on the rarity of this bill, but I can say that is exciting. I hope the paper guys have some good news for you!
Nice find! I would keep it. As to value, it may have some premium. The condition affects it quite a bit. The value would be much higher if there were portions of the adjacent note visible (the more showing, the higher the price).
Thanks for the responses! There are 3 wallet folds that are very prominent, is there anything I can do(safely) to flatten the note?
I've taken notes with prominent folds and inserted them into a book and then piled more books on top. Put the note in a Mylar-D sleeve first. This will help the note lay flat and hopefully retain whatever embossing is present. Don't expect miracles. Nice find. You seldom find errors on Star notes.
It was a short run too not to mention the last run of the series (printed in June of 2007), nice find!
Honestly, without a part of another note (or marginal markings) showing, it's just a really poorly-centered note.
Thanks for all the info! Anyone think that this has more value than face, and if so will anyone put an estimated value on it?
I think you can get more than face for it on eBay but I would be surprised if it went for more than $30. After your fees you only net a few dollars so I am not so sure it is worth it.
I agree with USS656. I would just hold onto it for a bit and see if the premium goes higher in the future.
