Not quite. The star note has a totally different serial number than the defective note that it replaces. That's the whole point of star...
Other way around. It goes from J99999999C to K00000001C, and then once it reaches Z..C it rolls to A..D and so on. All letters except O are...
And for more on that topic, see this page. There are actually more than twenty different symbols that were used in serial numbers, and there are...
Yep, varies by signature combination. The first one, Lyons-Roberts, uses the double ornament; after that, the prefix letter starts at A and...
And the specific note in the top post was printed in April 1980.
Hmmm...now that we know it's Series 2013 and therefore a LEPE overprint, it occurs to me that I don't actually know exactly which parts of the...
Probably because the H..* never appeared in the BEP production reports at all. We don't actually know when they were printed, or their exact...
From a full run of 3.2 million notes, with a total of 6.72 million printed for the district. So, pretty common as $20 stars go. Between that...
There were 512,000 printed, but it appears that only about 104,000 were ever released. The printing started at A00768001A, and the highest...
If by "in the past" you mean 1929, sure. Hasn't happened in a long time, and wouldn't be likely to fly today what with ethics rules and all....
First of all, why is this nine-month-old thread back on page one? o_O As for the uncut sheets: they're uncut sheets. They're supposed to have...
Yep. Notice that the blue eagle behind the seal has *also* changed color--he's going aqua. The eagle and the seal/serial are part of totally...
Nope, that one's from a full run of 3.2 million, with a total of over 7 million printed for the district. Unlikely to fetch much of a premium in...
Yep. All sorts of symbols were used in the serial numbers of large-size notes; this series happened to use a star. The star didn't indicate a...
Fractionals were cut from the sheets by hand, and as a result, poorly centered notes are quite common. A note like this one probably isn't even...
And if you want them broken down by individual print runs, try the group lists here (click on "G" for groups). (Prior to 1963B, most of the runs...
Star runs that had (half-)sheets released: 1999 $1 E..* run 2 (E03200001* - E03840000*) 1976 $2 a whole bunch of different runs 1995 $2 F..* run...
A radar is the same backward as forward: 49133194. A repeater...well, repeats: 49134913.
A lot of general books on currency don't mention (or barely mention) the 1929 Nationals because Nationals are such a specialized field. Many...
One point worth noting is that the two 1969A $1's, with unremarkable-looking serial numbers, are actually from the 64th and 65th sheets printed...
