I clearly did not find this in circulation, but I did find it at an internet auction this week and wanted to share it. It's VF-20 I would say, and a very tough note.  |

Found this one out in the wild today. 2009 F. Very Crisp. If it weren't for that pesky 2 it would be a very low number. still going to keep it. (obviously since I already put it in a holder)  |

Going through my savings tin and found two star notes
Series 2009 $5 well circulated but intact from a run of 320,000
Series 2009 $10 also well circulated but intact from a common run of 1,920,000.

Meadowview, how do you check to see how many were in a run? Is there a list online somewhere or listed in a book?

I finally found a low print run star note! It was in my drawer last night at work, and any time there's a star note, I try to hang onto it to trade later on. Well this one happens to be a run of 640K and it's only been used lightly! What are the values of of 2009 star notes with a 640K run?

A few of my recent star note finds. Was happy to find the $50 in decent shape. The middle $20 is a run of 576K and seems to have a very slight error in the star in the upper left serial #. The lower left point seems to be shorter than it should. Don't think it adds any value but still neat.   |

Found an old $100 dollar bill star note a few months back.  |

This is very interesting. And thanks Calzone for the link for the numbers of star notes printed. I don't have anything to show right now, but I will dig up some of my notes when I am home. I check the serial number for every note that I come across. I have accumulated a couple dozen $1 star notes over the years. I get $20 star notes pretty regular also but I only keep the nicest ones of each series. I have only found a couple $5 and $10 star notes and never gotten $50 or $100 notes.

Recently got several straps of uncirculated 2009 $1 star notes from the bank. Got Serial# D00956901 - D00957200, D01948001 - D01948100, & D00957301 - D00957350. Trying to figure out what the best thing to do with these notes is... Not sure if I should hold them and wait to see if they have some value down the road? Or sell them now, seems like I could get $150-$200 for a strap of 100 on ebay. These are from a large run of 3.2 million so they are not rare, but I don't think I will get lucky and get brand new straps of star notes from anytime in the near future. Also thinking about picking out the Fancy Serial Numbers but I have a hard time determining what good fancy serial numbers would be. Any thoughts / recommendations on what I should do? |

Just found the star's below this week at work. All are from runs of 3.2 million except the $50 is from a run of 800k. I am finding a lot of stars lately, need to start being more selective of the ones I keep. Its extremely hard to find them in runs of under 640k. I have only found one so far that was in a run less than that.  Edited by justind

I came across the series 2006 $5 star the other day. It is still surprisingly crisp, although obviously circulated. I can count on one hand the number of stars I have found over the years.  |

Finally dug up a photo of my old hoard:  This was amassed from about 2008-2011. I didn't image most of the $20s for security reasons; I had about 20 at one point until they all went to the bank to make rent in 2012. |
