<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hommer, post: 11571926, member: 73266&quot;]1. First the M in the serial number stands for the 2013 series. Since 1995 notes larger than the $2 note have an additional letter in the serial number (the first letter) which signifies the series year.</p><p><br /></p><p>2. The second letter is the Federal Reserve District for which the note was printed. In this case G, which is the Chicago District Bank.</p><p><br /></p><p>3. There were 4,480,000 star notes printed for this district (G) in 2013, of those 29% were sheets. These sheets were used to replace the individual damaged sheets pulled out during the printing of regular circulation notes. It is important to note that star notes are only used for replacement after the third printing of the normal currency where the serial numbers are added. </p><p><br /></p><p>4. Most all sheet printings are small runs. Your note was printed as a replacement sheet and was part of a small or short run. Even though there 4,480,000 G star notes printed total, your note has a rarity because of the printing run it was in and was a sheet replacement.</p><p><br /></p><p>5. Of the 4,480,000 total G replacement stars printed, 71% of them were printed and cut into packs of 100 consecutive numbered star notes. The cutting of the notes is done after the serial numbers are printed and are stacked into 100 sheets. The full packs of 100 regular currency notes that are damaged, miscut, or rejected for some other reason, are replaced with a full pack of 100 star notes these full packs of star notes are called &quot;Regular Printed&quot; stars.</p><p><br /></p><p>6. Regular currency notes are cut from 100 sheets that are in stacked in consecutive number before they are cut. If one of those 100 sheets was replaced with a star sheet. Then one of the notes in that stack of 100, will be a star note.</p><p>This in itself makes finding one from this run difficult as the next star note sheet used as a replacement was more than likely in a pack sent to the other side of the country or even world.</p><p><br /></p><p>Hope this helps.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
