    I recently went to the ATM, made a withdrawl. I was just looking over the money, not sure why since I don't really collect. Well..... I found some interesting things. First of all I found a New $20 star note, not so rare or interesting (I'm guessing) but still nice. Second I found 2 sets of 2 consecutives on these New $20's... Third and in my newbie opinion the most interesting... 3 in a row consecutives all starting with 777 and ending in 1, 2, and 3 - on once again New $20's... Now since I don't know much about this I was wondering if these have any collection value? They're all crisp, no folds, no rips, no nothing really, actually they're kinda shiney, not wet but a slight shine. -- Well thanks for reading, any and all comments are more than welcome. If you want a picture I'm sure I could do that.

    P.S. Added the picture, hope that helps.

    brohymn -

    As I am not a currency collector - afraid I can't help you out much on this one. I do know that many collectors do like consecutive serial numbers. But seeing as how the new 20's have just come out - it's kind of hard to NOT get them with consecutive numbers - at least at the banks. But if you were to hang on the notes and keep them in pristine condition - there will likely be a collector who will appreciate it in the future. That is of course if you decide not to collect them yourself ;)

    The star notes are collectible though and many do collect those.

    I guess I will have to hold onto them. I've held on to my comics for about 10 years so this shouldn't be too hard. I just have to get some protective holders. Thanks tho, that makes a lot of sense.

    Great observation!
    Good to pay close attention in order to find anything unusual.
    That "slight shine" is a good point.
