No, you're thinking of how large-size Nationals worked. For small-size Nationals, the plates aren't bank-specific; the bank name and charter...
I think you're misunderstanding the word "redeem". Only the U.S. Treasury could redeem paper currency for gold or silver (taking that piece of...
Since the presses use several plates in rotation, I don't think the plate numbers would necessarily have to match. But, yes, it does seem...
In fairness to the video, he's talking about duplicate serials (the same serial number was accidentally printed twice in the same...
I just ordered one a couple of weeks ago and got an H..E block, which wasn't newsworthy. The H..H is new to me -- do you have a link to that?...
Um...pretty sure that set was issued on August 8, 2008. That's why it's called the 8.8.8 set, after all....
I don't think the Fed cares much about the series designations printed on the currency. They order by denomination and design generation....
I don't really do fancy serials, but I couldn't pass this one up: [IMG]
It's a 2013 $1, so it was serialled on LEPE. The computerized LEPE numbering heads are so large that the left serial and right serial on each...
Could use several of the older FRN stars myself. If these find their way to Ebay eventually, please do let us all know!
And three weeks later, that's finally done. :rolleyes: I don't suppose anybody's seen any further blocks lately?
I wasn't either--this is the first H..E I've heard of. Good to know they exist. Also good to know the Mint is finally shipping something besides...
Sure. That site is rating the rarity by the print run size, which is listed as a number in the table a little farther down. These days, a...
I think it's the other way around. Farther back in the past, low serial numbers didn't sell for large premiums above face value--so if a Treasury...
I think it's probably from the pyramid on *this* note, not on a different note. See how the dye is darker on the back than the front: that...
Thanks for the illustration. And, wow, your notes are only a dozen serial numbers away from the note on Ebay! :jawdrop:
No, it says the note is a bookend. That is, it was certified along with a consecutive note that was interesting in some way, and the two notes...
Some vending machines and self-checkouts *do* accept $2's. They rarely advertise the fact, but if you just try to insert a $2, it works...
This will almost certainly never happen. You can do this sort of thing with coins without impairing their usefulness in circulation: there may be...
Why are we even talking about the grade of this note? It's a solid-9's serial, for crying out loud. It's worth moon money even if it grades Good...
