Stained and apparently circulated. Probably not a keeper.

Some modern star notes are HOT.

I was tracking an ebay auction this week and a circulated 2017 $1 Minneapolis (I*) star note sold for almost $250. A $1 Minneapolis star note has not been printed since series 1995. The print run on the $1 2017 Minnie star is 250K. Let that sink in a minute...a CIRCULATED modern One Dollar Star selling for $250. OMG

ok guys I've got a quick question...I've got some $1 bill star notes and I've noticed that the first letter of the S/N does NOT correspond to the series year why is this? I've got 3 star notes that are in consecutive order but the Letter doesn't match up to series year?

Not sure I'm understanding what you're asking

For $1 Federal Reserve Notes, the prefix in the serial number indicates the Federal Reserve Bank that ordered the notes for printing. The L in the serial number of the note you posted stands for the San Francisco FRB.

The prefixes, A-L, are the same across all series.

according to uscurrency- The first letter of the S/N corresponds to the series year as follows:
A='96 B='99
C='01 D='03
E='04. F='03A
G='04A I='06
J='09 K='06A
L='09A M='13
N='17.
So if your S/N starts with the letter M it should be a 2013 series. check the previous posted pics on here...

Ok, now I understand what you're getting at.

That is only when the serial number starts with 2 letters and only for $5 and higher denominations. Take a look at the pics of the $100 and $20 stars just a few posts before this and you'll see this. First letter is the series year and the 2nd letter corresponds to the FRB.

The $1 and $2 FRNs still just use a single letter prefix and that letter corresponds to the FRB that had the notes printed.

I hadn't looked at the uscurrency.gov website before, but it doesn't really explain the differences between the denominations that well (and even has some incorrect information on it as well, e.g., it says $1 S/Ns have 11 characters when they really have 10). So, it's easy to understand your confusion on this.
