    i think KC star notes are worth $25 each, so your sheet is worth $400 at absolute minimum.

    its probably worth more as a full sheet, $25 is the price for individual Kansas City star notes

    A single KC star note graded 66 sold for $352.00 in a Heritage auction in summer 2014.

    The Black Book is full of inaccuracies and is the worst reference for US paper money. No one should use it for pricing -- especially not a five year old edition.

    The 1976 $2 star sheets are worth different prices depending on the district.

    The Kansas City District (J*) is the key star sheet, and usually sells for many times the more popular districts. It's not fair to compare Cleveland (D*) and Kansas City (J*). Also, it appears that the OP's sheet has some kind of damage to every corner note. Even if the sheet was cut into 4 individual 4-note sheets, every one of those 4-note sheets would have a damaged note. The 4-subject Kansas City star sheets typically sell for $400 and up, and don't come up very often compared to the other districts.

    Its really not damage
    It was tape which has been removed without a trace. You have a keen eye though.

    Unfortunately, that's damage in the world of currency collecting.

    The point I was making in my previous post was not a point against BIN on EBay. My point was that asking prices mean nothing. Sales prices do (or may).

    @DUNK2 has it right, asking prices don't count, sold prices do. A typical no-problem 1976 4-subject $2 Kansas City star sheet sells for about $500 all day long.
