    Yard Sale find, got it in change :) what's the better "low-number" the Run Size or "Total Printed"?? IMG_20171021_103317.jpg IMG_20171021_103357.jpg

    Good question.

    Run collectors want low print runs, 640,000 and 320,000 on 32-subject sheets, and 500,000 and 250,000 on 50-subject sheets. There have been freak lower runs which are even better.

    Typical old school star note collectors put more emphasis on total star notes printed for a district within a series. That’s why the series 2009 $1 St.Louis (H*) star, with 320,000 printed overshadowed the run #3 New York (B*) star which only had 32,000 printed. The New York district had nearly 9 million star notes printed total, while St. Louis only had that one run of 320,000.

    Still confusing to me... The $10 I posted above says total printed 675k is that better than a low Print Run of 320k with 3 million total printed??

    It depends on whether you are a “run” collector or a traditional star note collector.

    It’s all mute when dealing with your $10. Unfortunately your $10 is in poor condition and has an ink mark on the face.

    Was looking through a box of books to donate and found a handful of consecutive notes in one of them including this Bookend :)

    I just realized I posted the wrong info for this note a few weeks ago above.. I had first entered it as a 2013 but it's actually a 2009.. I'm really glad the 2013 was a low print run otherwise I would have spent it already...

    If you find any 2009 $100.00 which is a stare note I would keep. With the bad printing, it is not known how many have or will survive. The others currency will have less stars, because of and when they get the systems set up to detect defects, then no more, and broken runs also.

    I found 4 wheat pennys over the last month, those I still find but the most exciting time was in the change I got the first time I got one was when I was leaving.

    Found this one today but has three strikes against it.. not in great shape, serial number not low enough and a high print run, so will use it to buy me a pint of the 'good stuff' tonight :)
