Never heard of the Birthday note, but I'll look into it. Thanks for pointing out that angle.

A birthday note and you could also call this a binary note since it only has 2 different numbers. A true binary would be 1's and 0's. I myself would keep it simply because it is a binary and a birthday note. No premium on it other than being a neat find.

Not a Binary note.
A Binary note consists of the digits 1 and 0 only,
not any two digits.
As far as a birthday note, I think it would only have
premium value to someone who's birthday falls on that date.
I have come across several that I just put back into circulation.

Greetings Jimmy. There is a difference between a TRUE binary and a binary note. I mentioned both in my post. This is a binary note, but not a TRUE binary which would be 1's and 0's.

PMG defines a binary note under the fancy serial number section as "Binary - In a binary serial number, only two numbers appear. In a true binary serial number, those two numbers are zero and one."

probably worth a very small premium over face value to the right collector.

kuh_85-
That can't be a 3 digit repeater.
To be a repeater, it would have to read 1191191
That note reads 1191991.

scopru-
I realize what your saying but you are going by PMG.
According to the Charlton Catalogue, the Canadian definition of a Binary Note is as follows
"Binary Notes have serial numbers which are comprised of the digits 0 and 1 only, in any order."
Anything else is just a 2 digit number note without any premium.
So I guess it depends on whether you go by the American standard or the Canadian standard.

Well met Jimmy. Yes you are correct. I needed to switch gears in my brain to the Canadian standards when I looked at this. Thank you for pointing that out.

Your daughter would get carted off in handcuff for trying to pass counterfeit money buying her lunch down here. Just like the young lady of 8 years old was when using a $2 bill. Neither cashier nor the arresting officers KNEW that $2 bills are indeed circulating currency, it took the desk sergeant to finally straighten thing out. Oh yes, our educational system is the best in the world...riiiiiiight, let me sell you some soon to be oceanfront property in Utah...

Crazyb0-
I know I'm getting old and easily bewildered,
but please explain the relationship of your
post with the OP's 5 dollar bill.

Regards-
A confused JimmyD

I think Crazyb0 meant to post his reply with the "How to get 500 $2.00 bills" post.
