Yep. Mine arrived today: H88891369C, position G3, plates 19/31. The plate position and plate numbers are consistent with these being part of the...
Ditto. Yes. So it looks like the BEP is using up leftover 888xxxxx serials from past special printings for at least some of the Lucky Panda...
Because it was issued on August 8, 2008.
Those serial numbers do not appear to be valid for 2003 $2 notes. Is there a typo somewhere? :confused:
Ordered one myself as well, though as usual it was mid-afternoon before I got the order in. So if a large number were sold today, mine probably...
Wait, do you mean your sheet has serial number B98720001A on it? If so, then it'd be the very first sheet of this printing (the serial range was...
Well, these go on sale tomorrow. And... ...I note that Coin World has an article with a larger version of the picture, and the note appears to...
Woods-Tate is *the* good one, but Woods-White is a little better than the very common Speelman-White. Something over 90% of the 1923 $1's are...
Worth adding: the delayed target date for the next redesign cycle, from 2020-ish to 2026-ish, was the result of security concerns. Some of the...
A plate prints either 32 (4x8) or 50 (5x10) bills on a large sheet. The presses use several plates at a time, so that one plate can be inked...
Well, the serials only begin with 888 this time, rather than 8888. That allows for 100,000 notes to be printed in a single block. Which makes...
o_O I'd think that the 7-digit ladders and the 23456777 would get at least enough premium to be worth Ebaying, though probably not TPG-ing. You...
Well...not really. Prior to Series 2006, *all* of the higher-denomination ($10 and up) uncut sheets were star sheets. And where $20's are...
They start at 1 and go up from there. These days, they typically restart at 1 every time there's a new series, so they generally don't get higher...
It's standard practice to test the inking by printing a sheet from a plate that's inked but not wiped. It's *not* standard practice to send that...
If that were the case, it wouldn't have serial numbers and seals. Somehow a sheet from an inking test stayed in the production stream and went...
Well, I'm not sure how *many* collectors would really be interested. But we do exist! :D
For the $1 through $20 denominations, circulation printings go up to 96000000. But for $50's and $100's, they go up to 99200000. (And before...
I think this may be the sticking point. The notes Drawde is describing are certainly collectible, but they aren't "low serial numbers", and...
Other way around. The various $2 collector products are printed using extra sheets that are intaglio-printed during the regular production for...
Separate names with a comma.
