<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CamaroDMD, post: 391300, member: 5233&quot;]OK, so yesterday I bought my &quot;keeper&quot; pile from my bank job.&nbsp; I got a bunch of $1s (20 or so) which I had been saving for the last few weeks.&nbsp; For the $1s, my rule is I set aside every star note and any note that is older than 1993 (so 1988A or older...unless its really bad).&nbsp; So, I got a handful of stars and older notes (including a 1969D).</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyway, when I got home I went through them and I found a couple &quot;common&quot; $1 star notes, one was a series 2003 Chicago and the other a series 2003 New York.&nbsp; I have about 20 &#039;03 Chicago star notes (high printing of slightly over 10 million) and probably 5 or 6 of the NY star notes (they printed about 5 million of those), so at first glance...they were pretty common finds for me.</p><p><br /></p><p>Then, I looked closer.&nbsp; The &quot;common&quot; NY star run was the third printing run - from B6400001* through B11520000*, a printing of 5,120,000 notes.&nbsp; But, mine was serial B03438111*...that note came from the second run, <b>a run of 320,000 notes!!!</b></p><p><br /></p><p>The Chicago note was similar.&nbsp; The &quot;common&quot; Chicago run is the first run of star notes...series up to G09600000*.&nbsp; The note I found is serial G09715069* which comes from the second printing run...<b>a run of 640,000 notes!!!</b></p><p><br /></p><p>So, I&#039;m pretty happy with my finds even though both are pretty circulated.&nbsp; Can&#039;t complain, I got them for face value.&nbsp; Here are the pics:</p><p><br /></p><p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b97/RichieB16/12003BNewYorkFRNB03438111star.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p> <p style="text-align: center"><br /></p> <p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b97/RichieB16/12003GChicagoFRNG09715069star.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
