<p>[QUOTE="tbudwiser, post: 1502429, member: 32774"]OP: Instead of just ridiculing you like unfortunately everyone else that has responded (or just unhelpfully saying to spend), I will <b>educate </b>you, since we are an <b>"educational forum"</b>. A <b>radar </b>is a note where you can read the S/N frontwards and backwards and it is the same number. An example: 47044074. Either way, it read out as the same number, if you read it from right to left or left to right. A <b>ladder </b>is a note that the numbers go up or down in consecutive order in the serial number. An example would be 12345678 or 234567890 or something similar to this. As someone else has stated the obvious, you have half of each. What you actually have is none other than a <b>trinary</b>, which few people actually collect, and they usually don't carry any premiums. A <b>trinary </b>is a S/N that is made up of the same 3 digits. Similarly, a <b>binary </b>is the same thing, but just made up of 2 digits, and highly more desirable than a trinary. I would guess most collect binaries. Here is everything you could ever want to know about fancy S/N's:</p><p><a href="http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?type=3&campid=5335874456&toolid=10001&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Freviews.ebay.com%2FFancy-Bank-Notes-10-Most-Common-Categories%3Fugid%3D10000000001758931" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?type=3&campid=5335874456&toolid=10001&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Freviews.ebay.com%2FFancy-Bank-Notes-10-Most-Common-Categories%3Fugid%3D10000000001758931" rel="nofollow">http://reviews.ebay.com/Fancy-Bank-Notes-10-Most-Common-Categories?ugid=10000000001758931</a></p><p>Enjoy!</p><p><br /></p><p>Rest of responders: Not trying to be rude at all, but I will admit that I was a bit dissapointed to see that no one offered an educational link or some educational info, or any facts to back up your responses.

Just a few sentences can save someone from being misinformed, and from further posting posts like this that are incorrect.
