    Ok Found this in a collection yesterday. It was marked as a Upside Down Star note. I can't find another one online. Anyone ever seen one before ? 20180902_050129.jpg 20180902_050153.jpg

    Nice inverted star error. The 1935G $1 SC (with motto) is the best known and most popular....typically from plate position “H”.

    Series 2003 Post BEP Fake Star on an L-? block note. I suspect it might be an L-G. Compare the Green at the left to the multi-colors (printer) star!

    Which likely means that inverted stars are either a) not selling at all or b) selling for much less, on other forums other than eBay.

    either way, it would seem to indicate that an inverted star is NOT a gold mine.

    Not a "Gold Mine" But worth a Lot more than what I paid for it.

    Depending on condition they can sell for a bottom price of approx $200 for the ratty ones going up. It's not uncommon to get over $1000 for a CU graded example. As Steve said your note is fairly "common" as these go. There are three different runs and they are all plate position H. Discovery notes and other more "uncommon" star inverts will go for more. Sometimes Much More.
