Post your star finds to date

No, a note can have pin holes and still grade uncirculated. Yours obviously isn't at that grade, but the pin holes don't automatically kill it.

If it were graded it would get an "apparent" grade note on the holder for the staple holes.

 

Thanks! Worth keeping in your opinion? Only 2 star runs for this series denomination, both with low printage...

 

Went to my bank today and my teller had $1600 worth of star notes and old face notes! So I grabbed them all and raced home to see what I had. I took a few pics but not of everything.

Look at that sad sad $50 bill

Well, shoot. I got this from the ATM on my way to the movies, FOR the movies. Darnit...

 

Forgive my ignorance here but maybe someone can help me

My business is 99% cash and we go through quite a bit of it. I would not call myself a collector (because of my ignorance) but I am more of a hoarder. I take any star and small face bill I find and put it aside. What are some of the things that I should look for if I wanted to cross that bridge and start collecting?

 

Those are all stars? What about the older bills?

Nice finds!

Beachloan, I would strongly recommend picking up this book. It is a great tool and should help you decide on possibly making a switch from hoarder to collector. Some might argue those things are on and the same.

I received these in change today. The top one isn't a star note of course, but the bottom one is. Both are 1963 and I don't see too many of those in change!
Weird day
Thanks for looking.

@LionelR

That is a nice find. You don't find a lot of the 1963 anymore and I have never found a 63 star.

I would call it a good day not a weird day.

Very good point! Unusual and Good!
Thanks, Derek.

 

Three $1*s I found for a customer
2003 L00159936*
2006 G05020737*
2006 L04018231*

 

Went to MAC to pull out money to buy a strap of singles and got a $20 2004A GF01790819*, then pulled 3 *'s out of the strap....2006 B01059386*, G04537560* & 2009 A04309721*.

 

lionel-
that's really strange. i found a 1963 star last week too! my first ever star for that year. nice find!

for some reason, i've been pulling lots of '06 stars this week:
new york:
b01593964*
b09899579* (640k run)
chicago:
g01497925*
g04290877*
g04617008*
kansas city:
j03333495* (mycurrencycollection.com lists it as a 320k run, but i'm pretty sure it's a 640k)

also, i found a series 1981a that's not a star, but has a high serial number: L99996370B. i think i'll keep it for now, until i get something with a higher number.

 

ive got a 1976 10 dollar bill with a star on it...what does that mean exactly and are the worth anything?

 

eric-

depending on the condition of the note and the district/run/serial info, it may carry a small premium over face. in order for anyone to lend their expert opinions on here (which you won't get from me because i'm definitely not an expert ) you will probably need to post an image or two of the note.

by the way, nice find!

 

Came across this one earlier this week and had to share with you guys!

 

My first star find, with an interesting serial number to boot!

 

Very cool, clorox - "fun" find!
