<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bzcollektor, post: 156142, member: 3241&quot;]A month or two ago I bought 2 separate lots of 5&nbsp; 1957-B $1.00 Silver Certificate STAR NOTES on ebay from the same seller. This seller had a bunch of consecutive&nbsp; STAR notes closing within a minute or two...</p><p>The 2 auctions I won just happened to be for the same 5+5 consecutive notes. A total of 10 consecutive&nbsp; STAR notes. Absolutly GEM Centered consecutive STAR notes.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; These 1957-B STAR Notes had a printing of a little over 49 Million notes. This seems a lot unless you conside theser 2 factors.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; Factor#1</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; Over 718 MILLION regular 1957-B notes were printed. Only 49 Million+ were STAR NOTES</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; Factor#2</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; 80-90% of all Silver Certificates were redeemed and destroyed in the mid to late 1960`s&nbsp; during the Silver Certificate VS the price of silver CASH IN REDEMPTION.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; All consecutively numbered&nbsp; CU 1935G , 1935H, 1957, 1957A, and 1957B (all printed in the early 1960`s) $1.00 Silver Certificates are way rarer than their prices indicate. MOST were destroyed upon redemption in the 60`s</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; The so-called common 1935 G and H, and the 1957,1957A and 1957B STAR NOTES&nbsp; are REALLY REALLY Rare. Most were destroyed. Really.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; I save the odd $1, $5, Ten and Twenty modern STAR NOTES if they are in AU or better. At least they are worth face value.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; A cheap investment in STAR NOTES are any $1.00 Silver Certificates (CU)&nbsp; in the $8-$15 dollar range (EACH), and any RED SEAL $2 or $5 US NOTES in the $10 to $50 range from any Series 1953-1963 in CU.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; Of course this is just my opinion.........[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
