Error notes are Highly Subjective from a price stand point to begin with.

The condition of this note makes it a guessing game.

When these notes first appeared no one knew how many had been printed.
So error collectors bid them up.

Based on the link I provided above there is 10,000 such
Mismatched sn's star's. In the currency world that's a lot of errors.

Currency can be kept tracked with SN's / plate numbers etc.
Ergo, no guessing involved here.

One thing the you can do is contact someone dealers and see what they would offer.

IMO, you are better off going the ebay route as I mentioned above and will
Get the best price at the end of the day.

You can try a start at $500 but it's too much for this..
my 2 cents and I could be wrong here...only time will tell.

Thanks all for the input. I am planning on sending it in asap. I want it slabbed so I can the most for it possible. Waiting until Sept or so might increase odds, but I am in need of money now. LOL

This is funny...
You start your original post with this comment

I kept it only because it was a star and just a buck.




I'll be at 101...jenger is at 100

edit below

IF you really wanted to get rid of this in a hurry someone here or elsewhere would have offered you a good price.....
not sure what you are trying to accomplish here.

Best wishes.

Ceylon, that is what is ironic about this. Had it not been a star note, I may not have noticed the error at all. It sat in my notebook because it was just a one dollar star note. I accumulate them then go through them in detail when I have a bunch.

What I am trying to accomplish? Nothing other than share my find and figure its value. Then offer it up for the folks here.

IF YOU are interested in trading your note for ChCu Gem short run star notes ( $1, $2 and $5) PM me with a scan of the back / we can discuss / take it from there. Cash price would be lower than a trade price.

On my short run stars it's easy to determine a fair retail price and I would price my trade for them at wholesale prices (50% to 60%) on my end.

BTW, I contacted someone about your note / he is not interested due to condition and being straight up as it would be tough to resell without the grade.

Ceylon, thank you for the offer. Unfortunately trading is not something I can do right now. I did get a solid offer that I am taking. Thanks again for your help. Much appreciated.

And the same to the rest of you. I certainly appreciate EVERYONES assistance.

Try putting it on ebay with a higher reserve like mentioned or one you would be happy with. If you do, add a link to it here so everyone interested can bid. My uncle had a circulated $100 star note with the serial number 00001234*. He put it on ebay with a starting bid of $175 buy it now $250 and thought it would take a while to sell. I was going to add a link, but it sold in about the next hour. He was surprised. This being said, do an auction with a reserve first. Good luck.

I think he stated that he accepted an offer here.

I too would of done ebay with a BIN for $850. People pay big bucks there, at the very least id of bet youd get $500 as a B/O

500 was the offer. I may have been able to pull more if I had had it graded, but that offer was good enough for me.
