I had never heard of star notes until I joined this forum. Then I went and checked my U.S. notes and found that the only $5 note I had was a star note. I thought that was pretty lucky as I am in Perth Western Australia and have no idea where I even got the note from.

Trigger,
It's even a small head star. I don't see much of those any more.

^ Just recently they changed the style slightly to deter counterfeits. They made the picture in the middle much bigger, and changed the look of the number 5. The older ones like you have are not very common to find in circulation anymore.

Here's my $5 star with a big head. They are also going to add color to the big headed notes sometime here in the near future.
