<p>[QUOTE="Chuck Van Scoyoc, post: 3091264, member: 95667"]And you might find some that are consecutively numbered, better still. I seriously collect star (replacement) notes. I have all the current denominations, up through $100 even as star notes. it helps immensely if you have regular access to a cash register, which I did for about 20 years. Not collecting that long, too bad! Of course I certainly noticed in pretty recent times that access to a register only helped if the customers actually paid in cash. I think f I were really serious about collecting star notes, I would try to establish a friendship with a regular teller at a bank and have them be interested enough, but not too interested, that they might let you know about them. Or perhaps find me in line at a bank, as I've turned in a lot at the bank that are in poor condition, or I simply needed cash for coins rather than currency. I make it a point of letting the teller know that the bills are collectible, so don't mark them up with ink or their magic fraud detector pens, but keep the great condition ones as they usually are worth slightly more than face value and some may rise reasonably fast , and there is always a chance that you get a star note that has a small run as a star note which can pay off handsomely. I'd take a look at The standard Catalog of United States Paper Money (probably now in its 36th Edition, now yearly) to get a good idea of what may be out there or the collector magazine, </p><p>Bank Note Reporter. if you're serious, or just enjoy paper money.
