Have a look In new acquisition thread for some star note I just picked up. And these note have a sordid tale.
No you really can't its crazy, the hunt is still fun thought and i will tell you what there are some out there worth a small fortune!! I recently came across on of the rarest modern $50 dollar star notes, funny thing was that didn't even come from my job, actually my side job is antiques and i was payed with it. I almost spent it but decided to look it up first and couldn't believe my eyes when i saw the numbers !!
I got a $5 tip (all ones) and 2 of them were stars. but I have also gotten 500 ones and got nothing. if you are going to search bills though I suggest learning about fancy serial numbers. you can sell things that you don't want to buy things that you DO want
I got one as part of a cash payment a few weeks ago. I posted it on my own thread. This is it from 1969! I just got lucky
This bill is worth about 150.00 dollars in present condition they never come up for sale it was a very good find !!
It's maybe worth $120 in uncirculated condition, but in it's current state, I would guess closer to $25-$30 tops. This one recently sold on eBay for $23.50. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1969-20-Fed...D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557
That seller probably didn't make anything after fees and shipping costs. Hopefully, for sellers sake, they get positive feedback and future business from it.
