No design changes for Series 2017, just the new signatures. The next round of redesigns is still years off--the last we heard, the target date...
Remember, they don't change the date on currency every year, but only when there's actually some change made to the notes, like a new signature or...
The zoomable photo in the BEP web store shows those two blocks plus the 2013 K..A. In general we've been able to trust the photos for these...
The new overprinting presses (ns-LEPEs) that they'll be acquiring won't use star notes: when they catch a defective sheet, they'll pull it out,...
Looks like the two 2009 notes are from the same printing as the Texas $2 Step sets, and the one 2013 note is from the circulation printing....
The stamp looks a bit like a postmark, maybe? If that's what it is, this might be analogous to the postmarked U.S. $2 bills one occasionally...
Watermarks go back to Series 1996; the polymer strip embedded in the paper goes back to Series 1990. Older than that, just look for the raised...
For cutting errors, that's true. But the $50 here appears to be not a cutting error but a misaligned printing--notice that the face is just about...
Haven't ordered one lately, no. I don't expect to see any more blocks past K..R, but I don't think we can ever be certain until the sheets sell out.
It can happen. Think about how the numbering heads work: the last digit changes for every sheet, the second-to-last changes for every tenth...
Yeah, if you've always wanted to have some consecutive $50 stars in your collection, you probably won't find them at a much cheaper price than...
Yes, that's why he pointed out that it's the "small red seal" version. See this Heritage lot, for example. This version only comes with...
Again, these numbers are badly out of date. The latest published figure for the average $1 bill lifespan is 70 months; for the cost of producing...
Remember, though, that replacing the $1 bill with a coin wouldn't save money any more. Metals prices are higher than they used to be, and...
Eh...they *are* from a short run of 640,000, though. And that run (like most short runs) was used as sheet replacements, so it isn't found in the...
Yes, it's definitely a first. You can sort of see how it happened, though; somebody wasn't thinking far enough ahead. With the redesigned series...
Gotta be never released. Stuff shipped overseas doesn't vanish; it often gets into the collector market more readily than stuff shipped to U.S....
Lengthy mathematical details are here if you want them, as well as a downloadable Excel sheet that does the calculations automatically. These...
Based on the serial number format and the 1988 date, I think it's Canadian. Unfortunately I don't know much about Canadian currency and don't...
Web notes only exist in the $1 denomination, in Series 1988A, 1993, and 1995. Those aren't an official government issue. Some private company...
