Also worth pointing out: In the 1928 and 1934 series, the transitions between different series letters aren't sharp. For example, when Series...
Not necessarily *more* ink, but *different* ink. The intaglio printing uses very thick ink that sits above the paper in ridges and doesn't soak...
It's the first bill of a strap (serial ending in 01), so when the paper band was wrapped around the strap immediately after printing and cutting,...
But jeans are made of cotton that's been woven into cloth; money is printed on cotton/linen that's been made into paper. Both cloth and paper are...
Um...of *course* it's printed on paper. It's just printed on good-quality paper made of linen and cotton, rather than the cheap stuff made of...
Let's see... #2 is a definite keeper, though given its condition it's not going to command a very large premium. #7 is actually a more...
First name could be Arthur?
Exactly. Hyperinflation would presumably lead to rounding, but it's not clear how the reverse could occur. If the government devalues our money...
That's because it's from run 2, not run 1. Observed sheets of 1976 $2 G..* typically fall into two ranges: sheets 4000-6000 of run 1, and sheets...
Knock a zero off those values and you'd be a lot closer. The 1957B is probably the most commonly seen silver certificate, and in circulated...
Yes, exactly. And for this note, that's probably the most meaningful number; not too many collectors are going after $50 stars by run. With $1...
1,920,000 notes, which is 60,000 sheets. The way these partial runs were numbered, there were 60,000 serials printed per position with gaps of...
But this note is from run 4, not run 2. It was a full run of 3,200,000 notes. There were 6 runs of stars printed for district B, adding up to a...
It's the most common district and block in the 1969A $10's, actually. :( Still a pretty cool circulation find, though! :)
Well, a lot depends on how much you want to spend. If you only look for modern green-seal $2 star notes, it wouldn't be too hard to get one from...
The second letter presumably *would* have gone to Z if they'd ever needed that many serial numbers, but they didn't come anywhere close. Even the...
Wait, what? :confused: Silver certificates don't have "districts"; only Federal Reserve issues have those. If you want to collect all the...
But notice that unlike past editions, this one doesn't appear to contain any notes printed especially for the set. Last year's set had the $2...
Per the chronology here, Treat's signature can be found on: 1907 $5 USN (the Woodchopper note already mentioned) 1901 $10 USN (the Bison note)...
Not any more. In the early '80s, the BEP quit being careful about shipping all new currency to the "correct" district. So today you can get...
