Found this K-E block Dallas note, which has 6.4m printed (so far). I figure I'll hang onto it for now, and if the K-E block turns out to be a larger run, it's an extra buck in my pocket. Also, Travis, I found two A block notes for you, but not sure if you'd want them: Note 1: Boston, Serial A 92331600 A, I would estimate condition to be in the XF range. Note 2: New York, Serial B 88769933 A, Condition is probably F to VF. If you're interested, I can post pics, but I think I remember you saying that you'd prefer UNC notes, with low serials, so I'm guessing you would not want these. If you do though, let me know, and they're all yours! -Jason.
I have seen a few KE's, but KE was extremely common for Series 2006 $1's so I assumed the run would grow and I spent them. I do see my fair share of AA and BA 2009 $1's, just none that are in UNC condtition and that is what I am after. I appreciate you thinking about me though and looking out for me. -tbud
No problem at all, dude. I will keep my eyes open for UNC examples of these notes, for you. As for the KE note, yep, the '06 KE's were/are very common, but it's only a dollar, so it's not going to kill me to hang onto it. If the '09 KE's turn out to be a large/common run, back in the wallet it goes!
I respect that way of thinking! Your the kind of person who would save something like that some day and have it be worth a lot later on. I am that type of person as well, but I had seen a few '09 KE's and not just one so I automatically assumed it wouldn't be worth saving, plus the whole 2006 $1 KE factor. Good luck with that note!
crisp consecutive stars are worth a premium. on another forum, I saw three whole straps sell for $130-$150 I'd offer you a couple bucks extra for a consecutive run of 10, preferably the first 10. P.S. Starting to see a few BC $1s. I wonder if more of those bills show up with the holiday new currency orders. The $1 strap I got today had 44 assorted 2009's. (Didn't count the partial strap or the loose $1s)
Alanfromroc I am going to swap some of my Boston * notes with Tbudwiser but I will have plenty left over for a run of ten. If your interested. Derek
I got another strap of 2009 today. Sorry not stars this time . They where Philly CA Block. I wasn't able to keep the whole 100 But I kept a few. C05765001A - C05765005A. Derek
Too bad those Atlanta's aren't FA blocks... I currently have arrangements for the CA blocks but thanks for considering me. Here is an updated list of the 2009 $1 CU+ 'A' blocks: (I want one of each) AA, BA, EA, FA, GA, IA, JA, and KA. Thanks you guys!
There are 12 banks that make up the Federal Reserve System: A1 Boston, B2 NYC, C3 Philadelphia, D4 Cleveland, E5 Richmond, F6 Atlanta, G7 Chicago, H8 St. Louis, I9 Minneapolis, J10 Kansas City, K11 Dallas, and finally L12 SF. Whenever a new series of US currency is released, some people collect one note from ever bank called a District Set of DS for short. Not too many people collect DS's. This is my first..
Travis, Have you found your Boston * note yet. The bank near me must be giving these out to everyone.Two different customers paid with these today. My luck, they are from the same run I already have.
The GA notes appear to have only been handled by the person who got them from the bank. They don't have any folds or creases. IMO I would still call them brand new. You have inspired me to start my own DS so I will need one of them but I can send you the other one or two for face.
They are just like any other series, jaf. Some are going to have fancy, and low serials, low print runs, and of course, star notes. Just because it's a newer note, doesn't mean it's not collectable.
my bank's first wave of holiday new currency orders was available today. $1 - 2009 BC (had seen a few of these recently, so it makes sense that I'm now seeing more of them) $2 - 2003A LA (had seen plenty of these already) $5 - 2006 IDB (have seen a fair amount of these) $10 - 2009 JDA (saw a few of these months ago) $20 - 2006 IDB (have seen a fair amount of these) [The teller didn't have new $50s or $100s yet] No star straps, rollover replacements or other stars as far as I could tell. I'm working on a 2009 $1 block set, and BC is one of the blocks I didn't have yet. I saved a run of 10 like usual, happened to be 46273161 through 46273170. Got 46273158 and 46273185 for my collection of 1-8 scrambled ladders. Saved 46273333 for another collector who likes quad endings
@ Alan So far is has been very strange with Series 2009 bills, excluding $1's. At one time, I saw tons of JL-A $5's and $10's and then all the sudden, they dissapeared! I also saw a few JL-A $20's. I haven't seen any since the week I started seeing them as if the Federal Reserve pulled them all back or something... Very weird... I wonder, what gives?
