[QUOTE="umtrr-author, post: 283667, member: 5719"]I promised a follow up post on this, and here it is... I did some more checking around on the net and with local dealers that I trust, and the most informative (and entertaining) response I got was that if Thalia Elizabeth held on to them until [b]she[/b] retired, the five star notes might be worth something above the $20 each that they are. The general consensus was remarkably similar across the 20 or so points I checked-- great curiosity, nice find, but not worth much above face if anything at this point. I ended up selling them at face value to one of my fellow coin club members who collects star notes. He does a lot for our club and I thought it would be nice to place them with him where they would be more appreciated. We did a joint "show and tell" at the meeting this past week. And he had an even better story than mine-- it turns out he got consecutive $1 star notes once -- [b]four hundred of them!!![/b][/QUOTE]
