My newest finds. It's been a long while since I've found anything of note, but these two notes gave me that little bit of excitement I was looking for.

This first one's my first true binary, and is lowish but not low enough to be noteworthy I think. But still, I like it.

True-Binary-And-Binary-With-Rotational-Symmetry!

This next one is another binary, but 6's and 9's. But it has rotational symmetry, which I think is cool. Rotate the bill 180 degrees and the serial number reads the same still.

True-Binary-And-Binary-With-Rotational-Symmetry!

I don't know if either of these are of much value for selling, so I'm not totally sure what I'm doing with them (keeping or selling). Either way, they're my most interesting finds in the past 6 months or so, since my 2-digit serial.

That second note is really cool, I've never seen one with rotational symmetry! I would keep it, even if it has no premium, still a cool find!
Rest in Peace

The SWIMS note (second one) has got to have some serious premium value to it....I gotta go check on that....

Yeah, it looks like the SWIMS note has about a $20 premium...not that you'd ever sell it. LOL

I seriously thought it would be more -- it is a really good number...so mayvbe it is.

I work at a gas station with a fairly high volume, and I always take the extra fraction of a second to peek at the serial number of every bill that comes through. It's been lucrative so far.. I've gotten two 2-digit serials, a 3-digit star note, a few odds and ends (binaries and radars and all that), and then these two. I also have 3333 4444 laying around somewhere but that note has proven to be slippery and I don't know where it went.

Not to mention my pair of $5's with the serials: ID 2912 0034 A and ID 2912 0034 B

It always amazes me what kinds of notes people spend.

Sure. I've uploaded them here before, but I can post my best finds thus far.

Couple of neat bills, some of the earlier finds I had.
True-Binary-And-Binary-With-Rotational-Symmetry!

3333 4444
True-Binary-And-Binary-With-Rotational-Symmetry!

My three lowest serial finds so far.
True-Binary-And-Binary-With-Rotational-Symmetry!

True-Binary-And-Binary-With-Rotational-Symmetry!

True-Binary-And-Binary-With-Rotational-Symmetry!

And the matching serial fives:
True-Binary-And-Binary-With-Rotational-Symmetry!
(They're smoothed out a bit and inside plastic holders, they look a ton better in them but as you can see they were folded pretty bad)

These were all over the past three or so years; so it's not like I find things too terribly often. But I always keep an eye out!

Aside from these I've found a couple other binary (not 0's and 1's) notes and a few radar notes, but they seem to be common and not super worthwhile to keep.

Edit: And as to a previous reply: I think the second one's awesome too. I'm really tempted to throw that on ebay and see what happens, but I'd be totally disappointed if it doesn't really catch on and sells for like 10 dollars. The binary note is neat, and like.. ALMOST low, but I don't think that would catch on super well either.

Edit 2: Actually wow. Looking at sold ebay listings, it seems that any binary note in general might be worthwhile to sell. Maybe it would be worth the time..

Nice collection. You've had much better luck than I've had.


As for selling ... you can set a reserve price in an auction.
