Are there specific requirements for a note to be classified as a radar note? Basically my 1963 $1 FRN has the serial number: I 00428240 A I assume that the letters aren't required to match, but mine has an extra "0" at the front too. Does that disqualify it from being a "true" radar note, do collectors of this type of thing care? Here is a picture of it. It is in perfect CU condition, so what might it be worth? I have another perfect CU condition 1963 $1 note with just a normal random looking serial number, what would that be worth?  Sorry about the less than perfect photo, I am having some trouble with my picture hosting site right now. Edited by The_Cave_Troll

Radar notes by definition will look like 12341234
There are many areas of paper money like triple digits and so forth.

Are you sure? That looks like a repeating number. My understanding is that a radar number would be 1234321 or 12344321, Thus the term radar (meaning basically a number that will look the same when read forwards or backwards, just like the word radar). |

Sorry, you are right. Mental block on my part today. Radar notes are the same forward or backwards.

Hi, this is the definition I found....Mike  Some examples of collectable serial numbers are; low numbers (A00000035A), radar notes which are the same forwards and backwards (A12344321A), 6-8 same digits (A33333333A, A16444444A), special numbers (A00001776A, A19970000A), etc. Basically, any strange or interesting serial number combination is probably collectable and worth more.
