Hi everyone,

I have a $20 bank note with serial CJ06030603,
Can anyone provide assistance with the that's on this type of note?

Goatieman provided useful stats for me on a previous thread regarding 6digit radar + repeaters being 1 in 1,111.
So I'm thinkin 8 digits will again reduce the chances a fair bit.

Although its not first or last prefix, what may be a realistic value for this serial (or the same type)

Thanks for any replies.
(P.S I'm looking to expand my knowledge on banknotes as its a growing interest, any links to useful sites / threads would be helpful especially regarding where to find what the last prefixes are)

It is an 8 digit repeater, not radar. If its UNC it might be worth $40-50

The commonality of 8-digit repeaters are: 90 in 999,999 which will be 1 in 11,111 (e.g 06030603)
This commonality will be the same for 8-digit radars: 90 in 999,999 which will be 1 in 11,111 (e.g 06300360)
As for 8-digit radar repeaters, that's a different story entirely, why? Because in each prefix, there's only one likelihood because of the year serial (e.g; so for 2006 it'd only be possible for 06600660). This makes an 8-digit radar repeaters: 1 in 999,999 which will be 1 in 999,999, making it rarer than a solid serial.
This is all if my brain's working right right now.
Want some more stats, don't hesitate.
