    Some of you might know that I've been assembling a complete set of uncirclated, small-size, modern era one dollar star notes. I originally thought I would complete it by the end of last year, but I ran into a snag........namely, a 1988 Dallas star (K*). Well, yesterday, between the Easter egg hunt, and Easter dinner, I got an email from a friend letting me know the search was over, and I should have the elusive Dallas star by weeks end. So, every district, every series/year, from 1963 thru current in CH-CU or better is complete.....now it's on to the $2's.

    Wish me luck.

    Fantastic accomplishment Steve. Congrats!
    Are you working on any other series, and if so how close are you to completing it?

    Thanks ya'll.
    Currently I'm 90% done with $2 star notes (1963 thru current), and completely done with 1976 thru current $2 4-subject sheets (including star note sheets). The 1976 $2 4-subject star note sheets can be pricey, especially Kansas City (J*).

    My next purchase might be an IPad2

    wow that must have taken a lot of time and patience. I am working on at least getting every year Dollar made, not into getting every district, ect but at least one example of each year. It's a little slow going and some are hard or pricy to get. But congrats!

    That is an amazing accomplishment. I've been trying for a complete set of ANY year and haven't been able to do so yet.

    VERY VERY impressive! I'm very young and have only been into numismatics for a couple years now, but someday, I'll have a very impressive set like yours! I, too, enjoy collecting star notes and I guess I've got a pretty decent horde; maybe I can send you the serials for the twos I have (my specialty), if you'd like.
