<p>[QUOTE="sewjr24, post: 809929, member: 23149"]I have been a casual coin collector my whole life. Several years ago I inherited a bunch of coins from my grandfather and a great uncle. They've been sitting in a box in my closet all this time and I finally pulled it out recently to start sorting through everything so I can get the collection organized and cataloged. Tonight I reached into the box to pull out a roll of old nickels to start sorting through, but when I did I pulled out a $2 bill instead. It is a bill that someone gave me some years back and I just threw it in with the coin collection without much thought. When I took a closer look at it tonight, I noticed it had a star in the serial number. I don't know that it makes this bill any more valuable, but I do know this is supposed to indicate a replacment bill and that they are generally more rare. This bill is crisp, clean and in like new condition (uncirculated) because it has just been sitting in the box with the coins since the day it was handed to me. Can someone tell me if this thing is really worth holding onto? It is a 1976 series bill. I'll try to attach a scan of it to this post if I can figure out how to do that.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
