Rainy New Member United States 9 Posts	Posted 02/11/2015 8:58 pm My fiancee came home with a 20 dollar note with the serial number 49666649 that is from 2013, is it considered a binary or trinary note and is it worth something other than face value. Didn't post the whole thing but showing the serial number. Report this Post to the Staff

It's close to a radar (if the 4 and 9 closest to Jackson switched places) Here are some fancy serial numbers to watch for http://oldcurrencyvalues.com/serial_numbers.html I think it's a spender unless you can afford to keep it until you find a binary or radar or other "fancy" serial number. -MV Report this Post to the Staff
Rainy New Member United States 9 Posts	Posted 02/11/2015 9:43 pm Thank You MV! I am not going to spend it, going to hold onto it. My sister has a $10 note with a serial number 18154321. I thought it was pretty neat as well.. I just wonder if you could tell me, is there a difference between a Federal Reserve Note and Federal Reserve System? I am new to this, but I just it was really different. Thanks again Report this Post to the Staff

Like MV noted above, if the 4 and 9 were switched you would have a nice radar note worth keeping. In regards to your other question the Federal Reserve System is the United States banking system in a nutshell. If you want in depth information, there are several websites that explain it better than I ever could. Federal Reserve Notes are the only money used by the US currently " for all debts, public and private". They are backed by the Federal Reserve Banks. Report this Post to the Staff
