<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lettow, post: 1932525, member: 6986&quot;]No modern FRN are printed with consecutive numbers on the same sheet.&nbsp; Not even star notes.&nbsp; The higher serial numbers are printed first and the sheets stacked on top of each other so the numerical sequence goes down through the stack.&nbsp; (So the serial number 1 note is not on the first sheet printed but the last of the first print run.)&nbsp; This is the way they are cut and banded.</p><p><br /></p><p>Star notes are inserted as sheets prior to cutting when a defect is noted on a sheet.&nbsp; They are a series unto themselves and there is no attempt to replace a defective note with one with the same serial number. </p><p><br /></p><p>If they did this there would be no reason for the star in the serial number.&nbsp; The sole purpose of the star is to alert the first user of a new pack that there may be notes that are out of serial number sequence.&nbsp; If replacement notes had the same serial number as the note it replaced the numbers in the pack would be in numerical sequence and the star not needed.</p><p><br /></p><p>Remaining star notes are not destroyed but issued as packs of star notes.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
