my girlfriend who works at a restraunt found these 2 repeating serial number notes in her register the other night and gave them to me. do these have any premium? i am guessing that they don't, but i still like them.
What you have are known as 5 of a kind. If they were three or more 7's or 8's (oriental cultures) you would have what's called "lucky money". 777 jackpot reels on slot machines and 8's are very lucky number in the far east. Repeaters would be L12312312L or E08090809F or if they were all one number A99999999B things like that. Value they are no better than XF (EF) due to the strong fold down the center with the wrinkles they may only be VF. Series is also important they are 2006 series and may bring a 25 cent premium at most for people looking for 5 of a kind notes. Personally if you don't need the $2 I would keep them just for the fact that 1) they are interesting and 2) when will you ever see another one without searching it out and paying $20 from a dealer for one. I personally have one each 444, 555, 666 starting serial is AU and a 7777 start in Unc.
+1 but not so much the first note. Serial numbers with 5 of the same to start are common in my book. I come across them quite regularly. -tbud
