[QUOTE="Numbers, post: 2494420, member: 11668"]Haven't seen this one before. The seller appears to have figured out that people like rollover straps where the last two notes have been replaced by scarce sheet-replacement stars...so he's taking ordinary straps of currency, and swapping out the last two notes with common stars! [url]http://www.ebay.com/itm/BUNDLE-2013-1-ATLANTA-BANKNOTES-CU-LAST-2-NOTES-ARE-NEW-YORK-STAR-NOTES-/162156639973?hash=item25c149f6e5:g:UyUAAOSwbYZXfE3R[/url] [url]http://www.ebay.com/itm/100-PACK-2013-2-BANKNOTES-98-NEW-YORK-2-RARE-ATLANTA-STARS-AND-SN-B08533333A-/162149448106?hash=item25c0dc39aa:g:sW8AAOSwZVlXnQAG[/url] You can tell the BEP didn't put the stars in these straps, because (a) the stars aren't from sheet-replacement runs, and (b) the plate positions of the stars don't match the rest of the strap. What will Ebay sellers think of next...? :rolleyes:[/QUOTE]
