Ink stamps, pen ink marks and folds take a lot away if any extra premium. I see it on most of your bills.
personally, i would save the 2 twenties on the right and the 2 singles, reason being is that someday they will go to my son and if nothing else he would at least have an extra $42 in his pocket...
As a general rule, star notes need to be in crisp unc condition to even consider saving. There are the occasional small volume print runs that can command a premium, but since few were printed, they aren't easy to find. Save what you like, as long as you remember that many of them will never be worth more than face value
I'm inclined to say they are not worth keeping since their condition seems to be circulated (therefore stripping any value over face that they may have had), but if one is from a very low print run then maybe there could still be premium value. To check print runs use this website: http://www.mycurrencycollection.com/reference/star-notes/lookup *Note: Website only looks up notes going back to Series 1981A. Anything before that will take more research.
Condition is everything ! markings or any type of distractions on the note itself impact the value greatly, so i would think these would fall in to the category Of Walmart spenders.
Yeah I'd agree with this for myself. I keep all star singletons just cause I collect them. The two twenties on the left would just bug me to look at, especially the one that was scribbled on. But if you're looking to make a profit, you're probably not going to amd might as well just spend 'em all.
went to ATM today and got $80.00 3 of the $20.00 were in numerical order from Boston Fed Reserve Bank and the SN# sequence was separated by a GEM Star Note from Chicago SN# MG09914429* Looked it up and it is a run od 320,000 anyone know what it is worth? I would be willing to let it go as well.
Star note only. It's nothing special as in a fancy number. Looks gem so maybe $21.00. Keep it if you can.
There is a website you can download! It's called mymoney.com It is easy to use. You just enter the denomination of the bill. The Full serial number starting with the letter prior to the serial number. You then add on the star the all important (*). Then enter the series date found at the bottom of the bill. Hit the enter button and Immediately will see your results. The rarity of the bill will be graphed Not Rare-Rare or Very-Rare. JUST because it's a new bill or not very Rare does not mean it's NOT valuable. Any Notaphilists, like myself will pay upward Face Value. I WANT TO MENTION THIS TO YOU. THERE ARE VERY VERY RARE STAR NOTES THAT WERE PRINTED WITH THE STAR COMPLETELY FILLED IN. I CALL THEM SOLIDS. NOW EVERYBODY DON'T GO FILLING IN YOUR STARS! MYMONEY.COM HAS A SPECIFIC LIST, JUST FOR THESE RARE VERY VALUABLE NOTES. THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO SHARE MY INSIGHT. GREAT POST... GOOD LUCK AND HAVE A GREAT DAY
I see nothing rare, either in number or condition, meaning - take them to the bank and buy a decent little Black Eagle Ace in low VF with the balance - you can if you hunt. It'll be more valuable and interesting in the long run. That, or put it into a mutual fund, it'll be worth far more in the future than any of those notes will.
I save star notes no matter the condition. For fun only and nothing to do with value. I don't get them very often so it's fun when I do find one.
