<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Numbers, post: 841324, member: 11668&quot;]I think what you&#039;re missing is that, ever since 1983, the district of the star note doesn&#039;t have to match the district of the note it replaces. That way, the BEP only has to keep on hand one pile of star notes for each denomination, instead of twelve. As a side effect, most series now have stars printed for only a few districts.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>For series printed before 1983, it&#039;s a lot rarer to see a district getting regular notes and no stars, but it still happened occasionally. Generally, that means there were enough stars left over from the previous series that the BEP got through a whole (usually short) series without needing to print any more stars. For example, Kansas City had no 1969A $10 stars printed; the supply of 1969 $10 stars must&#039;ve lasted clear through the small 1969A printing.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
