This is my first true radar.

While it's not in the best condition, as my youngest son said when he saw Disney's enchanted kingdom for the first time; "it makes me tingle all over!"

A note that has a serial number that reads the same forward as backwards: ex. 95577559, just like the word radar.
Rest in Peace

That is a nice note! Congrats. One nitpick though I thought a "True" Radar had to have the letters match too: C12344321C but NOT C12344321A

i thought a true radar was 10000001 but that is just me. I guess we all got different opinions on true radars.

Maybe, but most have posted the notes with only qualifying numerical sequences. I really don't know because I have just a limited note collection. Guess it'll get me ba kin the books.

Ceylon, I would agree if the note in question is something like a one dollar bill. The Fives have the two letter prefixes, would it have to be AA 03044030 A to be a true radar? I'm just curious.
