<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ajm229, post: 64833, member: 3350&quot;]Here&#039;s the info for you in English: Star notes are created by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP for short; they&#039;re the guys who print the bills, just like the Philly and Denver mints mint coins). Every time the BEP catches a note that&#039;s printed with an error, they destroy the old note and re-print a new one with the same serial number as the old one, except they add a star so that you can tell it is a replacement. </p><p><br /></p><p>As for value, obviously the older the note is, the more it&#039;ll be worth. However, star notes with lower serial numbers (something like A00004118A, as an example) even in more modern years like 1999 are worth a small premium to a collector. I wouldn&#039;t get your hopes up too far though - unless you want to hold onto it for 60 years, the value won&#039;t be enough to take a vacation on! If you do plan on keeping it, put it in a safe place, keep it flat, and keep it as crease-free as you can, because any creases or wear-and-tear on the note will decrease the value significantly.</p><p><br /></p><p>I hope this has helped! Good luck with your finds!</p><p><br /></p><p>~AJ[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
