Eh...now you've made me go and look this all up.... :rolleyes: Looks like the AA..A combination was used on $20's, $50's, and $100's; the BB..B...
The first B means that it's Series 1999. The second B (and also the B2 below the serial number) means that it's issued by the the New York FRB...
Yes, it won't be there, but no, this isn't the last series without it. Series 1950E is also missing the motto. The motto wasn't added to any...
Specifically: the 1869 Legal Tender Notes of all denominations (such as this $20), and the 1890 and 1891 Coin Notes of all denominations, used the...
There's some historical justification for this, though. Long before TPGs for currency existed, some folks would take old uncut sheets of...
Sounds good, yeah. Thanks for passing the word along. :cool: I'm actually trying to put together a few articles on the star note serial...
Eh...I'm thinking this whole line of argument is a red herring, because the note itself is illegal anyway--it's a counterfeit! The question is...
In some countries, the freshly printed banknotes are actually packaged by stapling every 100 notes together into a bundle, rather than putting a...
You may also have missed the St. Louis note...the "Double Lucky Money" product, which is also sold out, contains the H2008xxxxD notes that would...
Block I..G, run 13, fp332 looks pretty common as 295s go. There's a census online here; it hasn't been updated in years, but that's probably...
What nobody's pointed out yet is that the backs of U.S. currency are actually printed with two different green inks. They look identical under...
Okay, after the discussion the other day on how often radars happen, I want to know just how unusual this thing is. :D Let's see...out of...
The $2 is going to be well-nigh impossible, though. That serial 65555556 has only been used a grand total of five times on $2 FRNs (1976 B..A,...
Here you go. :cool:
And just in case anyone is still confused by this: the problem, of course, is that the pattern breaks after 9. Between 00099000 and 00100100,...
Arithmetic: With U.S.-style eight-digit serials, a radar comes up once in every 10,000 notes on average. I'm not sure where you got the 11,000...
Notice the serial number. This is an "8894", the single most common replica obsolete note out there. Many thousands of these were printed for...
Not $50's...a bundle of $50's would be $50,000 worth, which is more than most banks would keep on hand at one time. The Fed requires "large"...
Oh, it's not *that* bad.... See this page for a quick summary of all those little markings on the bills, and it'll all start to make sense.......
No, it's because that FRB document only discusses $5, $10, and $20 notes. (Notice that it only lists wear standards for those three...
