    People are big on CRHing, but are people also big on strap searching?

    If so, what denomination usually has the best "successes" in terms of pulls?

    The best rate of return is with searching $1 notes. This is due to the fact the design hasn't changed in over 50 years so older notes are allowed to freely circulate with newer ones. Today, I went through 1000 notes and I found three 1988A notes and a 1993 note that is in AU condition. A few weeks ago I found an XF+ 1981 note and a 1963A note.

    With all of the filtering that goes on with bank tellers 'muting' old bills and with the government swiftly destroying such old notes as they are redeemed, you'll be hard-pressed to find old notes like this in $5 and higher denomination straps these days.
