    Congrats man! I like searching for star two notes at work. I also buy out the other star notes I find from customers. :] Only one five, 3 ones, couple dozen two stars though! Happy hunting!

    Nice pickups! Any star found in circulation as nice as these is a bonus.

    cool ... Q: are the 5$ 10$ notes w/ stars worth more than the 1$ notes with star??? I would assume yes but I collect strictly US coins

    Nice find...I love finding star notes in circulation. As far as the $5 and $10 dollar star notes being worth more or less than the $1 dollar stars, it depends on the print run lenth. Short run stars are almost always worth more than star note runs in the millions. On average, a ONE dollar denomination short run star note has the potential to become 25 to 50 times FACE value, more than a $5 or $10 notes. There are some exceptions tho.

    My wife has been bringing star $1.00s home from work for years, close to 900 to date. Don't know what she will do with them, perhaps put them on ebay when she hits the 1000 mark. A few years ago I was in a store when the cashier gave me change which contained 3 consecutive fresh $1.00 stars, I asked if she had more she was willing to part with, she said she hated new bills because they "stick together". Went home with 34 consecutive beauties at face.

    I find tons of star notes at my work where I handle north of $1k in cash every day, most days is closer to $2k.

    Few are nice enough for me to justify pulling to keep.

    I should explain why I think this is weird. I'm the grave yard guy, and I only handle like $500 or less in a shift. and all but one are crisp bills.
