Found this one yesterday in change. Closest I've had to a solid....it's like being just that one number away from a big Lotto win...


The one I'd love to get is a JD06 101964
That'd mean more to me than a solid, also the missus would like GD09 091964

i have three of these $5 serials with only one number off being solid and they're devastating and great to find at the same time.

That's correct!!

Enworb, agree that being so close to a solid is both annoying and yet satisfying at the same time - I'd have been more peeved had the '1' been at the very end, instead of where it is here. Least I wasn't really that close to getting all the 2's here - someone 10,000 notes away may have got lucky, though.

Yeah, nice one. I have a few $50's in EF/aUNC condition similiar. One has a consecutive note too. Wouldn't it be nice to find on in circulation. Yeah, the birthday would be awesome...the closest I've got to CG06031982 is CG06030054. Maybe one day.

hi. what is a solid? is that when all 6 digits are the same? I came across a fifty that is 05 200000. I presume this is close? but then again you wouldnt get all zero's?

You are correct - a solid has all the 6 numbers the same. 000 000 only got produced on some earlier years if I remember correctly.

I think for $10 you have to keep ones like that. Yours is made better because there's another 7 in the year.

Hi, I've been trying to avoid note collecting because of the cost, but this $10 caught my eye yesterday. Just eleven off being a solid. The bads news is that I am instantly hooked now on looking for special numbers ...

And I know this $5 isn't call a radar or repeater, but can't think of the correct term. Can someone please let me know?

Prepare to be frustrated, entranced, obsessed, and more. It's great fun though!

Here's one for you Enworb, from my latest $1,500 of $5's. I know how much you like the number 5! I'll PM you.

awildeheart; I'm not sure what you'd call that. If it was 505505 or 696696 it would be a radar repeater, but on its own...I can't tell you. Maybe a semi-radar? Nope...just a serial number (maybe an interesting serial to some?)
