Thank you so it has no value ...so why does when I just searched it up it says it rare? I am sorry I am just trying to get these star notes.
While it may have fewer notes printed than others, pretty much any modern banknote is going to have low demand in that condition. Collectors of these want nice crisp copies. Not to say you shouldn't keep it in your collection until such time as you decide you want a nicer copy, but it's hard to imagine being able to sell it for enough to pay for the listing and mailing costs.
@Itiswhatitis, welcome to CT! Star notes, in general, are not that common (you don't see that many in circulation) because they are replacement notes for those that were found to be defective while still at the BEP. Since the BEP is very good at their job ("insert smirking smiley face here") there is only a small percentage of notes that get reprinted with the original SN plus star, to denote a replacement. So that in itself may make it seem rare. Now, there are also short print runs, & other aspects of notes which would also add to the perceived "rarity" of a note. I won't speak to that since I am not involved with that type of collecting. The issues with your $20 note as I see it are: (1) The condition of your note is not good. Collectors of notes generally want absolutely pristine notes. This one is not; it's too wrinkled/creased. (2) Your note is a $20. That's too much to have tied up in a star note which is not perfect. Please consider again that I am not speaking to any other "rarity" factor, such as short runs, BEP location, etc. None of this is to say that you shouldn't keep it; collecting is a very personal matter & no one should tell another what to, or not to collect. Unfortunately, you posted this thread in the "What's It Worth" forum, so many members who are actually into collecting notes are not going to see it. You may want to repost this in the appropriate forum, or ask a moderator (ie, @lordmarcovan, @desertgem) to move it. Continued success on you numismatic adventures!
