<p>[QUOTE="beef1020, post: 962047, member: 24544"]The 1963b series is called a 'Barr' note after the treasurey secertary Joseph Barr. He is the shortest serving secretary at 1 month, from Dec 21 1968 to Jan 20 1969. These notes can carry some premium because the series was not produced in as large numbers as others. They were also saved at the time, which is my guess as to why you found one in good condition, someone saved this note a while ago because it was a Barr note and decieded to spend it.</p><p><br /></p><p>You did not say if it was a star note, but if so these go for around $30 uncirculated.
