Yes, it's A1 to H4 on the older presses and A1 to J5 on the newer ones. But your image of the 50-subject sheet is sideways; there are five...
No. The presses use several plates in rotation, so if you get a whole stack of sequential serial numbers, you'll see three or four different...
It's not a circulation printing--it was a special printing that was sold in BEP collector folders. There were 16,000 printed for each district....
The earliest 32-subject intaglio presses were single-plate models, producing a stream of sheets that all have the same plate number. I forget...
Wait, what? :confused: I think JMM was correct...a bit of serial number ink has transferred to the back of the next bill up in the stack. In...
Latest data shows that about 29% of U.S. banknotes in circulation are $1's (12.4 billion out of 43.4 billion). Very few $1's, or other low...
No, remember the timeline: the next $20 design is due to come out in 2028-ish. Neither the current administration nor the winner of the 2020...
Wow, that's a very high density of misunderstandings.... :confused: When a bill is replaced by a coin, it takes a *larger* number of coins than...
In general, no. But for radar serials, sometimes yes; a radar with matched letters like E12344321E is sometimes called a "true radar" or "full...
Not on a $500. A serial starting with 000xxxxx isn't very impressive when the printing only got up to 001xxxxx. :rolleyes: (Okay, some other...
Nope. Most recent printing was this past November. (More are on order for the current fiscal year, so there may have been another printing since...
No he didn't. The NYT article is so wildly inaccurate that the BEP has posted a statement on the front page of its website explaining the true...
I think it really is overinked. Ever since LEPE started serialling currency, this extra-bold third digit has been seen rather often. Since it's...
The $1 with the high serial 998xxxxx is cut from a BEP collector sheet. That one ought to be worth a couple bucks' premium to somebody. The rest...
Well, if the serial number starts with 2019, they can only get 10,000 notes per block, so they'll need three blocks to produce 24,000 notes....
There are web notes in this series, but most notes of this series aren't webs. Of the notes you posted, the only web note is the A06000600F....
Please clarify--this spreadsheet came from the BEP? I haven't put much (any, really) effort into keeping track of the serials of notes pulled...
They changed from micro to macro once, in the late 1930s. From then on, all notes used the macro-size numbers until 1991, when the Fort Worth...
Part of the problem is that various posters in this thread are thinking of three or four different mutually incompatible definitions of the word...
They are not. As of a couple years ago (and I think it's still correct today), the BEP has eight of the new SOI presses and fourteen of the older...
