Quote: Since the Federal Reserve, and not the BEP, is the monetizing authority for currency, and these notes are never delivered to the Fed, are they really even money ? My best guess is, after they're printed they are charged to the Federal Reserve District they're printed on, then credited back as they're sold. The notes come with a certificate of authenticity.

Quote: The notes come with a certificate of authenticity. Does the COA say anything about legal tender status? US Mint COAs usually do, e.g., the COA for the new Innovation $1 says "This coin was minted by the United States Mint and is legal tender of the United States", but I haven't purchased a BEP product in over 30 years  I know that every note individually indicates it's legal tender, but in reality that's only true once it's serial number has been recorded into the Fed's system. Since these BEP product notes are never physically delivered to the Fed, I suspect that you're correct and that some sort of electronic entry is made in the Fed's system to monetize these notes.

Sold with matching serial numbers in August 2001, the BEP sold 4,300 sets for $49.95 each. Sets started with F00017001* and G00017001*. As far as I can tell, by researching BEP records, this the BEP's first attempt at selling matching serial number sets on two different series as collectibles. These are still available today through the aftermarket.

A very common bank, with many type 2 $10s like this in the census.
The standard reference is Don Kelly's National Bank Notes, 6th edition, available in hard copy with a (must have) CD from the author - just Google Kelly Bank Notes or similar.

Added this $10 Chicago Numerical to the set over the weekend. Fairly robust print run of 8.1M but for some reason tougher in high grades than many lower-run districts. This is crisp with nice paper wave and embossing, with centering probably at the 64 level.
