Does the Fed take out star notes when they come through? I wouldn't think so if they were still a current series. I closed a bank account out today and asked for the bulk of it in 1's 5's and 10's. I went through a bunch of straps that had the actual Fed Strap on them and didn't find a single star. I know they take the older stuff out. The oldest I found was a 1999. I did find a 1963A $1 in one of my change machines at the laundromat today. It was actually very crisp and in overall very good condition.
if you are getting fed straps of circulated notes there can be stars in there. i get them at work at the time. they usually are newer bills though. they destory the older notes. some slip by though. hope that helps. if anyone else can chime in on something please feel free:thumb:
