    Unfortunately, I was not the buyer. But still pretty neat.

    A tremendous amount of circulation for something like that. Can’t imagine nobody ever set it aside

    Yeah I know. Based on the seller's profile I'd be willing to bet that they were the one's who found it too.

    That is a pretty low serial number to be sure, it would have been much better
    if the condition was at least A/U would have doubled the sale price probably allot more !

    At that price and with the amount of circulation that Note has seen I wouldn’t have bid that high.

    I never look at the serial numbers on my bills.
    Only thing I ever seem to notice is if the note happens to be a star bill.

    I'd love to find one like the one posted.

    I look at every bill that passes through my hands, and I still haven't seen even four consecutive leading zeroes. I did make two or three dollars (after eBay fees and shipping) on a $20 with a lot of 8's.

    STAR notes are cool however most aren’t
    worth anymore then a standard bill and
    you have to find the right person, even
    Ago get a small premium.

    Just shows how many people pay little to no attention to their money.

    I sold off this $100 stack of Star notes a couple weeks ago. The fees kinda stink but hey, I still made money.

    I sometime look but often my brain is asleep at the wheel... Good luck to those that are smarter than I.

    I'm not into saving paper currency, but to get a serial number that low, it seems you would have to be at the door when they were printed. Or.., maybe not.

    Long time ago when I was a teenager in Buffalo New York, the dad of a friend of mine worked at the federal reserve branch There. He gave me a one dollar silver certificate with the serial number C 99999999 C, uncirculated. One of my prized possessions.

    No, you just have to be at the store behind the person who was at the door, but cared more about getting candy than having a low serial number.

    I save a lot of notes for various reasons. It’s a dollar here of five dollars there but I never miss that money. Over the years I now have over $2000 saved and all those notes are special in some way. A fancy number, collectible or whatever but I own them all as face value. :)

    I keep all of the stars no matter of their condition or denomination. I have been doing it since about 1994. Have many uncirculated. All at face.
