I don't collect anything unless it has 5 zeros, but I have never found one of them, so am I really collecting them?

Yes you're not. I'm not collecting $1000 star notes that I find in circulation either.

Here's a couple I got back in change recently. The $1 a few weeks ago and the $5 about 6 months ago. Added the $1 to my collection. The $5 is in my "I'll save it unless I REALLY need to spend it pile". :)

dursin, if you get to the point where you need 5 bucks badly enough to spend that, you should sell it on ebay, to a dealer, or (if you have the required 50 posts) you could sell it here, on the forum. I know that I would pay at least 10 dollars for it, and I have no idea what it's worth. to sum up: don't spend that thing for face value.

I consider 5 leading zeroes to be really worthwhile. I recently found a $5 - don't remember the series, but I'm thinking 03A - numbered 00000178, in quite average circulated condition, and sold it for $17.00...

What series and condition? It should be, since it's a binary and a repeater (sort of).

That's pretty cool - I've never seen a binary note actually in binary...

I know absolutely nothing about collecting bills. I thought "star notes" were old...but oih82w8 said 2006. So, once and for all, what is a star note?

Quote: So, once and for all, what is a star note?
Star notes have an asterisk next to the serial number. The star designates that note as a replacement for a sheet that was damaged in the printing process or is otherwise not acceptable for commerce. The unacceptable notes are destroyed and then notes with new serial numbers are printed with the star added so the total count stays the same but the number of replacements can be easily calculated, it is basically an accounting trick for the BEP. Some star notes are just merely uncommon while others are quite rare.
