[QUOTE="umtrr-author, post: 280414, member: 5719"]Yesterday's visit to the ATM turned out to be pretty interesting... Looking this morning at the twenty dollar bills I got from it, it turns out that there are five consecutively numbered star notes. Is that worth a period at the end of the sentence, or an exclamation point? Or several exclamation points, I don't know... They are from the Series 2004 A, there is an "H4" in the bottom left corner and differing H numbers in the upper right corner. Serial numbers start at GF 03193882 and go to 886, all with the star following the number. And of course these are the "new" design twenties with the larger offset portrait of Mr. Jackson. I wish I hadn't carried them around in my wallet for 24 hours as they are now slightly bent (not hard creased). I'm sure a session underneath Thalia's Krause catalogs will fix that alright, otherwise, they are crisp and clean, like they were just out of a pack. Although I am quite certain that I have not just made Thalia's college fund :hammer: ! I, who can just about spell "star note" and that's about it, am wondering whether this set of consecutive star notes is of any value beyond that of being a novelty. I saw a thread about a $100 star note being of a bit of interest because there were so few hundreds of that type in general-- certainly not true of the twenties. I'm going to keep them fresh in a couple of currency pages for now, and if it turns out that they're only worth up to 100% of face value, well, I guess I wouldn't be surprised.[/QUOTE]
