Message:: [QUOTE="Numbers, post: 1119572, member: 11668"]Holy old thread, Batman!  <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie6" alt=":cool:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> The plate positions of the "2008", "2009", and "2010" D-suffix $2's indicate that they were all printed at the same time, in runs of 1000 sheets per district for the ten districts that got them.  So the serial numbering runs like this: 20080000 - 20080999 : position A120081000 - 20081999 : position B120082000 - 20082999 : position C1and so on, up to20108000 - 20108999 : position E420109000 - 20109999 : position F4 What, if anything, was done with positions G4 and H4 is not clear. The only "2011" $2's we've seen in hand are the Minneapolis and Kansas City notes from the Double Deuce Set.  Those are the two districts that *didn't* have any D-suffix notes printed previously.  As near as I can tell, these two printings actually started at 20112000, not 20110000, and were again 1000-sheet runs for each district: 20112000 - 20112999 : position A120113000 - 20113999 : position B120114000 - 20114999 : position C1and so on. That leaves a lot of positions open after the end of the "2011" printings, so it's entirely possible that those positions were printed with "2012", "2013" and even "2014" notes.  Or not: we know that the Federal Reserve is planning to order more $2's for circulation in the next fiscal year, so the BEP might not want to print Series 2003A $2's with "2012" serials, given that there'll be a new $2 series out by then. We'll have to wait and see what the print run structure is for the other districts' "2011" notes when they're released in a couple of weeks.  Since there are only 2000 notes being issued per district, it's possible that (for districts other than I and J) these will be the unaccounted-for G4 and H4 positions of the original circa-2008 print runs, rather than new printings.[/QUOTE]
