What's the minimum number of zeros the SN should have to be considered low?

Do you have any to post as well?

The lowest I have, which also happens to be scanned and ready to post: H00052924* of 640,000 printed.

 

i look at any note with 3 or more zeros as being low i think my lowest serial is a 2006 $1 FW note B00000208E, but i think my coolest is 00001600

 

Nice pics please and yes I have a 1$ star note coming
In from eBay 4 Zeros and a star I'll post pics soon as it's in
And low SNs being atleast 3 zeros

 

Cool! Congrats on the new acquisition.

 

Don't have any U.S. but I do have a couple of Canadian pulled from circulation.

 

Dayuuuum nice don't really know how the candian bill SNs work but it's LOW! also does ANYONE on this site have a note with a SN under 00000020?

 

Each series (different prefix) spans the numbers 0000000 to 9999999. The zero note is removed and a replacement note is substituted.

 

Excellent, SteveInTampa!!!

I was waiting to see these! Thanks for posting them! Great seeing them all together and I like that Tampa "22" as well!

 

That is a very nice collection you have there

 

Nice notes Steve - very cool. Looks like someone is obsessed with the number 12. I think my lowest note has 4 0's, but it is at work. Found it a couple of months ago and just have not got around to bringing it home.

 

Thats all I have scanned at the moment..

That Cleveland $5 note is awesome, Rick!

 

A note from my buddy Madison:


Are there Specimen notes available from the USA?

Dave

 

Yes there are, and there is a great book on the history of them too:

U. S. Essay Proof and Specimen Notes, 2nd edition by Gene Hessler

 

Gene Hessler again, I should have known

Thanks krispy. They must be pretty rare, I don't think I've ever seen anyone post one.

The 1929 American Bank Note Company Specimen notes are pretty plentiful and not too expensive. Show up on eBay all the time.

 

I wonder if our terms are different. For French notes, a "specimen" is a full print of a released banknote, with 00000 serial number and often a "specimen" overprint or punch. So other than these attributes, it is a "real" banknote. The note you link to looks like what I'd call a "test note", manufactured not to produce real banknotes, possibly not even as an essay by an artist in an attempt to make a design to be a real banknote. These would be what the French community would call "echantillon" notes, which we've had threads on before as you know.

I think you are correct about these ABN Co. notes from what I have seen/know of them.
