[QUOTE="funkee, post: 1603466, member: 37925"]Understood. So these are individual notes, and not a sheet as I previously assumed. What you have is a set of $10 notes from each Federal Reserve Bank. The note pictured is the 2001 series, and not 1995 however. When sold in sets from different federal reserve banks, they sometimes come with the same serial number on each note. However, the prefix to the serial numbers will differ, either from the print range and/or the federal reserve bank. The first letter of the serial number from the "small head" series like 1995 identifies the fed bank it was assigned to. The "big head" series of 2001 has a two letter prefix. The second letter of the 2001 series identifies the fed bank. [TABLE="width: 264"] [TR] [TD]Bank[/TD] [TD]Letter[/TD] [TD]Number[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][URL="http://www.bos.frb.org/"]Boston[/URL], Massachusetts[/TD] [TD]A[/TD] [TD]1[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][URL="http://www.newyorkfed.org/"]New York[/URL], New York[/TD] [TD]B[/TD] [TD]2[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][URL="http://www.philadelphiafed.org/index.cfm"]Philadelphia[/URL], Pennsylvania[/TD] [TD]C[/TD] [TD]3[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][URL="http://www.clevelandfed.org/"]Cleveland[/URL], Ohio[/TD] [TD]D[/TD] [TD]4[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][URL="http://www.richmondfed.org/"]Richmond[/URL], Virginia[/TD] [TD]E[/TD] [TD]5[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][URL="http://www.frbatlanta.org/"]Atlanta[/URL], Georgia[/TD] [TD]F[/TD] [TD]6[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][URL="http://www.chicagofed.org/"]Chicago[/URL], Illinois[/TD] [TD]G[/TD] [TD]7[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][URL="http://www.stlouisfed.org/"]St. Louis[/URL], Missouri[/TD] [TD]H[/TD] [TD]8[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][URL="http://www.minneapolisfed.org/"]Minneapolis[/URL], Minnesota[/TD] [TD]I[/TD] [TD]9[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][URL="http://www.kansascityfed.org/"]Kansas City[/URL], Missouri[/TD] [TD]J[/TD] [TD]10[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][URL="http://dallasfed.org/index.cfm"]Dallas[/URL], Texas[/TD] [TD]K[/TD] [TD]11[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][URL="http://www.frbsf.org/"]San Francisco[/URL], California[/TD] [TD]L[/TD] [TD]12[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] This probably has nothing to do with the actual errors, as they might not be related to the serial numbers at all. Since you have the 1995 series, you will likely have a set that looks like this: A00005689A B00005689A C00005689A D00005689A et cetera The errors could be margin/cutting errors, gutter folds, ink smears, or a variety of other things. It would still command a premium as I'm sure these notes are scrutinized by employees before being put in these holders, making them rarer than notes that make it into circulation.[/QUOTE]
