<p>[QUOTE="TheMont, post: 4427991, member: 80121"]I guess it depends on who you ask and where you're located. I collect star notes, but certain conditions have to be met. If the note is prior to 1928 and is what is commonly called a horse blanket, if it has a star on it I want it. If it's a modern note, I only collect them if they are in crisp uncirculated condition. Having said that, one of my favorite star notes is a 1928 Silver Certificate, which is a smaller sized note. It graded out to a 50, so it's not uncirculated, but it still one of my favorites. Members of my coin club collect them, and when we have our spring and fall shows, the dealers try to make sure they have a few in stock. I also have a BEP half sheet of $2 Bill's, that are star notes, hanging on my den wall. The saying in coin collecting, "collect what you like", also applies to notes.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
