Just went through a stack of bills from the bank yesterday and found a 2013 B 04895017 star note. Pretty good condition, not a rare star though.

Bryan78's 2013 $20 Boston star is run #2 Oct.2016 3.2M.

These I keep until I find a nicer example, or until a cash emergency emerges...then it morphs into a spender.

Thanks for the info Steve. I keep ALL star notes regardless of condition. I put them in my extreme emergency cash envelope.

Got this at the bank today. Got the awesome feeling I'm going to start getting more star notes. I thank the teller for the star note and she said where and I when I showed her she said she never noticed but she would keep an eye out for them for me.
Nice find!

So new to star notes, but in banking the serial numbers should never be 2 the same. Unless counterfeit, this is not that.

Series 2003A $2 star notes were printed for both Atlanta (F00000001* - F00320000*) and San Francisco (L00000001* - 00384000*).

Serial numbers include both the letters (or star) that precede and follow the actual numbers. When you include these, then there aren't two serial numbers that are the same for the same denomination and series of note.

Star notes are not direct serial number replacements for the misprinted/damaged notes or sheets they replace. It can happen, but it's just serendipity if it does. Since your note's serial number (L00180118A) falls within the range of the star note serial numbers for San Francisco, there will be corresponding star note with serial number L00180118*.

Occasionally, you'll see the star/non-star pairs together (see this topic http://goccf.com/t/324526 ).

@WW, star notes are (as we all know) replacement notes. BUT they don't keep the same serial number as the note they are replacing (and just replace the trailing character with a star). That would be far too much time and effort on the part of the BEP, so the numbering is completely independent. Ergo, you could (and probably do, as you proved above) have both

L00180118A and
L00180118*

in circulation.

edit: BadDog beat me to the punch, but .
