No sheets of $20's were issued in the '80s. If you have a $20 with no third printing that was clearly cut from a partial sheet (as opposed to...
Seven, not that that invalidates any of your points. Remember the $2! :p
No, it's the ridges of George's coat on the other side of the bill. For what it's worth, I still haven't seen any blocks beyond K..N for the 8888...
Brick label. Before the days of shrink-wrap, forty straps (4000 notes) of new currency would be placed between two wooden blocks, with a label...
Yeah, it's the way they used to number the partial star runs, before about 1995. If a full run of star notes is 100,000 sheets, but they only...
Much more likely a slight transfer from the next sheet, when the sheets were stacked before the ink was fully dry. As thick as the ink used for...
Got the same email, but I thought this one was a yawner. There's nothing in this set that you can't get in circulation; nobody "needs" this set...
Including your note, I've got 41 recorded serials. Weirdly enough, one of them is _6713811, consecutive to your note! The overall serial range...
Exactly. Because of the printing problems, all of the 2009 $100's were held at the BEP until they could be re-inspected to cull out the error...
The 2013 $2 K..A sheets have now turned up on Ebay, and judging by the serial skips, the printing is even *more* massive than the 2009 $2 A..A...
Me too, and I think this raises a really good point: There are basically two ways to learn what is and isn't worth saving. One way is to listen...
More detail (from the Huntoon book): The "standard" sheet combinations for Original Series NBNs were 1-1-1-2, 5-5-5-5, and 10-10-10-20. Each of...
Okay, you're really paying attention, aren't you? :cool: This note would be from one of the nonstandard sheet combinations, which used their own...
A standard full print run of star notes is 3,200,000 notes. Sometimes much smaller partial runs are printed; those tend to be the valuable ones...
Maybe because it doesn't cost more to produce any more, and doesn't have such a short life any more. Due to increases in the cost of coinage...
Still haven't seen anything past K..N, but I just noticed that the ordinary uncut sheets of $2's in the BEP's online store are now listed as 2013...
Correct about the signatures, but even the small-size 1929 Nationals were sent to the banks in sheet form. So small-size Nationals can also be...
Interesting. Maybe it's a sheet that someone else ordered and returned for some reason? (Although, if my math is correct, that sheet would have...
For the people who've been waiting for them for years: I was just sent a photo of a shrink-wrapped SNI bundle with a label showing a starting...
Not a transfer, just embossing. The face side is printed last, so any embossing of the back printing gets obliterated by the embossing of the...
Separate names with a comma.
