    Now I have a 1 dollar bill with 666 at the end of the serial number and the fed reserve district number is 6... Any value there? Thanks - newbie

    I don't feel that there is any added value, 3 6's are quite common once you start paying attention.

    There are definitely folks that will pay a premium for 666.

    I just needed to repeat my old post #53 :banghead:

    :stop: This is and old thread, interesting and silly at the same time.. I studied Theology and the truth is that 666 is incorrect, It was actually 616. You are looking for the wrong number! :arghh: ... I want to share this with you.
    Quote "The recent 616 discovery, which was found in a collection of documents recovered in Egypt, isn’t exactly a whole new revelation. While it dates back the furthest, other ancient manuscripts of the Book of Revelation have the number as 616 instead of 666, provoking some debate in the past as to which were the original digits. Both Greek and Hebrew letters have numeric values that can be added up to arrive at a total. One common explanation of 666 is that it comes from the numerical value of “Nero” transliterated into Hebrew letters. A small change in the transliteration can result in 616.
    Many scholars believe that 666 won out because it is derived from a more complex formula and also because it’s simply more catchy. “Six hundred sixty-six looks like a more memorable number than 616,” said David Parker, a New Testament professor at the University of Birmingham in England. “Six hundred sixty-six steadily took over, and the alternative was forgotten until modern scholars in the past 200 years started to look at more manuscripts and to find ones that had been lost.”

    The truth is that it is indeterminable which number was the original due to the preponderance of both numbers in ancient manuscripts, although 666 is the most likely. Both 666 and 616 point to Nero, the one in Hebrew (and Koine Greek) and the other in Latin. It help to identify him as the Beast mentioned in Revelation.

    They are quite common, along with so many other 3 matching digit numbers in the note's serial numbers.

    I looked in my wallet after reading this thread. Did not expect anything usually but I got curious. There was no usual notes in at all. But get this ......







    I had exactly $666 dollar in there - 4 $100s, 4 $50s, 3 $20s, a $5 and a $1. I had taken the $100s and $50s out of the safe yesterday when I realized I was getting low on cash.
