Coinfrog, I had not considered R and S notes, being experimental, but right now I'm not accumulating anything. When I get back to it, I might consider them for completeness. Truth is, I originally started doing just the FRNs, but decided to extend the collection back through the small-size SCs.
Right now, I have very few SCs in UNC, but those I do have are nice. I have two pairs of consecutive 1935G notes in the XF/AU range (one pair would be UNC except for those darn folds), a 1935 in XF/AU, a pair of 1957 consecutive in CU, a 1957 VF/XF with a tremendous obverse ink smear, a 1935G star note in high AU, and the best ones are a pair of consecutive 1935E star notes in CU (would be choice except for the vertical alignment) - even their plate numbers are consecutive! The rest of the 1935 and 1957 series are complete but varying degrees of circulated. No 1928s yet...
I'm not doing the horse blankets simply because of cost. But even so, TypeCoin971793 did give me an 1899 Black Eagle with a 7-digit serial number for Christmas a while back!
