<p>[QUOTE="Numbers, post: 1528046, member: 11668"]What series are you looking at? For older notes, the S&L book gives the low/high reported serials, because official serial data on some older series doesn't exist. For more recent series, they generally give the official data. If you're talking about something common like a modern FRN, there are going to be so many in existence that nobody's keeping track.... If you've got something intermediate, not too old but not too common, like maybe a 1966 $100, then you *might* be able to find somebody who's been keeping a census of that particular series. But in many cases, it appears that nobody has compiled such data. (I'd really like to get my hands on a census of 1963-1995 $5-$100 FRN stars, but it seems that nobody actively records these things, and I've already got too many ongoing projects to start that one. There are still a number of mysteries in the serialling of the FRN stars in the '60s, '70s, and '80s, many of which would be easily resolved with a good large data set....)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
