In Series 1988A, web stars were used to replace web notes. In Series 1993 and 1995, there were no web stars. Ordinary sheet-fed stars were used...
Totally disagree. Don't need packaging that takes up even more storage space. A simple cardboard folder that's only a bit larger than the note...
The 1935G $1 is the only series that comes in both "without motto" and "with motto" versions. In all other cases, the motto was added at the...
I've heard two theories: oil on the cutting blades, or contact with the glue in the holders. (The Millennium notes came in different holders than...
If somebody is offering you $150 for that note, take the money and laugh all the way to the bank. That's far more than it's reasonably worth.
Pretty sure all Mint orders come from Memphis. Once upon a time everything was shipped from the mint facility that struck it, but that was long...
Ordered another Lucky Panda myself, and got H88884263F, A2/20/27. So from the same strap as yours, but at least it's not consecutive this time....
No, please keep it up. The more collectors you can persuade to avoid low-grade problem notes, the cheaper I can get them for my collection. :p...
The BEP's presses use either three or four plates in rotation (one gets inked while another is printing while another is cleaned...) so a group of...
I think it's just to keep the BEP's record-keeping from getting too complex.... Every run always reserves a full 3,200,000 serial numbers, even...
Because often a single district will have lots of runs printed. The "total printed" is just all the runs added together. To take a random...
Ah, this one's too easy. An old-style $10 with a FW-sized BP number can only be Series 1995.
No, it's got IGWT, so it can't be earlier than 1963. And the last series using the "classic" designs was 1995, not 1999. The low plate number...
Okay, if we've got similar smudging on the A2 and B2 notes of the same sheet, then I don't think the numbering cylinders are to blame at all--it'd...
The same SN or a different one, though? On LEPE the serials on a sheet are only 100 apart, and the faint serial behind the ...8101 looks like it...
In addition to the above comments, here are the total quantities printed for the recent $10 series: 2013: 2,182,400,000 2009: 1,465,600,000 2006:...
So, nope, the prices weren't lowered to compensate for the fact that we're now paying for shipping. Not that anyone expected that, of course....
Since I got H88890318D, I'm going to have to agree with you there!
I also ordered one more Lucky Panda before the BEP store shut down, and today I also received a D block. Obviously they're not being issued in...
Yes, as you said, the H..E only had 8,888 notes issued, in the 8.8.8 set. But originally the H..C only had 4,888 notes issued, in the Double...
