I have found these over the last few days. Sorry that they are gray scale. Is there any value to them? J
Got these in a bank withdrawal in the south bay. 1953A $2 LT (Fine) 1976 $2 FRN (AU) 1995 $10 FRN (VF) The teller didn't even realize she had a 1953A LT in her stack of 2s. It's a shame I haven't been visiting this particular branch. They told me they recently sent some FRBNs to the Fed, thinking no one wanted them. Plus they get lots of 1928 notes as well. It's not as crazy as the woman who turned in an AU 1928 $500 gold cert in the Lafayette branch, but this one seems to be promising.

The 1976 $2 FRN star note might be worth a dollar or two over face, if it is uncirculated. Also the $1 FRN sequential stars, if uncirculated and sold together, may be worth a few of dollars over face because they are relatively low serials.
These are today's finds. Some of them of rough and I am not sure if I should keep bills 5 of the same digit or not. Are there any I should not keep? Thanks, J
The only note that I think has some added value based on the serial number is the 30800308 note. It's called a book-end. Although it's not as popular as a radar serial, it can command a small premium to the right buyer.
Okay guys, quick question. I scanned my $5 bill to post, but it saved as a pdf. How can I get it to something postable? I tried print-screening it, but that didn't work...
I bought 2,000 singles at the casino last night and I had some good finds. They are: 1981 C-C 1985 C-B 1988A B-C, E-P and G-A 1993 L-B--this is my first 1993 in awhile. 1995 B-U, E-G, E-M, E-R, I-G and L-T Four stars: 2003A F-* 2006 F-*, G-* and L-* Interesting serials: 2006 C77777066D 2009 H95998900A--pretty close to a rollover. I may end up spending the last two unless someone thinks they are worth keeping.
That's when the next block letter is used, such as H-B, H-C, etc. With current $1 notes, a new block is started after 95999999. I bought 1,000 more singles from the casino and 2,000 from various banks. I had some good finds. Highlights: 1963A K-C 1974 L-H 1988 G-E 1988A E-K and G-Q 1993 D-A and L-D Various 1995s including a crisp and high-grade L-V and a seldom seen L-Y block in nice condition. Seven stars from series 2003A, 2006 and 2009. When I search the one dollar bills that I buy, I start by checking the backs for high plate numbers and I line the notes up so they are all upright. The 1963A K-C was interesting to find because when I saw the back plate number of 1145 I was expecting it to be a 1969 when I turned the note over. This note was printed after the 1963B bar notes and after series 1969 had started. I believe this note was printed at the very end of the 1963A series.
I just redeemed $100 in rolled coins at a bank and I asked the teller if she had any old bills. She pulled out this: This block and district only had 7 million notes printed making it the smallest regular block for the entire $100 1974 series so perhaps it is considered uncommon or even rare.
From what i can see, the production tables at uspapermoney show a total production of 4,480,000 regular production notes, tied with Atlanta. Nice note & nice find!
What tables were you looking at? This is where I got my information from: http://www.uspapermoney.info/serials/f1974_h.html It shows 7,040,000 for Minneapolis and 11,520,000 for Atlanta. Perhaps you were looking at a different denomination? Regardless, I agree that it is a nice note and a nice find for sure.
Looking around that website and another source, I've found that 1974 $100 serial numbers were a continuation of 1969C $100 notes. One lists 4,480,000 as total, the other 3,840,000 as a total. Buy that teller a present.
The 11,520,000 total is for Richmond (E), not Atlanta. Minneapolis (I) and Atlanta (F) are identical at $4,480,000 in regular production notes for series 1974.
