We must have some collectors with that birthday. I would have listed the date on the topic line. Good find. Birthday notes are tougher to find then you would think.

True Birthday notes (MMDDYYYY)(American Style) or (DDMMYYYY)(European style) are tough to come by. I have only found one strap where it happened to be birthday notes 09012000-until 09012099. I of course bought 09012000-until 09012016 and it just happened to have the 09012001 note! Random notes (and I search a lot) and I have only found one 11-01-1993 (either Nov. 01st 1993 or 11th of Jan. 1993) real birthday note. I have found two notes with the following pattern YYYYDDMM and YYYYMMDD, but to true collectors even these are questionable. The dates are 1987-05-05 and 1941-09-11. The second one could be considered September 11th, 1941 or 9th of November 1941. I have even seen people try to market notes like the one I recently found 01984139 as the 13th of September 1984. That seems like someone is stretching it to me, but if an eBay-idiot bites. Not my problem.
