    HA! How ironic is this?

    Went to the bank to get a new $100 to stuff into a heat-shrink tube to insert into a toothpaste tube as security money for my son as he travels abroad.

    I didn't notice 'til I got home and no time to go get a replacement note.

    What is the interest/value of an un-circulated (from NEW mint pack) $100 Star note, I'm wondering. THANKS!

    I would not know, but it sure looks cool. Tell you this, though, collecting them on 100s is an expensive way to, well, enjoy the hobby. :)

    This note is from series 2009, which was greatly delayed from being issued into circulation due to a widespread folding error. These notes were put through a special scanning process before they were released. Even though 3.2 million stars may have been printed, there's no telling how many actually made it out to circulation to begin with. As such, I would consider holding onto it until its value or scarcity can be determined with these factors in mind.

    Fun stuff. I had this happen to be a while back. Found two at the same time but had to spend them.

    you have to take population reports with a grain of salt, certain circumstances can alter them greatly.

    I would keep any 2009 Star of that series, because you do not have any idea of how many survived the checking. The system they are using now, may have taken out the stares too. There were a lot of defective printing of that series.

    I get new, crisp uncirculated $100 star notes all the time at the bank I work at. I just keep them moving into circulation.

    I can't make any profit off of them on ebay. Not enough mark-up.
