FEEDBACK & POSSIBLE VALUE PLEASE $100 STAR NOTE 2009 SERIES: Boy Scout - JFK serial number (JFK Boy Scout note). This note is interesting due the serial number 19102661. The year 1910: In February of 1910, the Boy Scout Association was founded. 2/6/61 (February 6th 1961) JFK was President. JFK was the first Boy Scout to become president. Note: This note has a very small rip on the side (Left side Obverse).   Edited by 103070

I could be wrong, but I don't think there's any premium here, especially with the tear. But I'm always learning!  |

So it being a star note doesn't help at all :)?

Personally and respectfully, the information about the serial number doesn't seem significant enough to offset the condition, Star note or not, to consider keeping the note as a numismatic investment. Unless exceedingly rare, collectible $100 notes are typically AU or better and without distractions and flaws.

Okay Thanks,
Steve, so what you are saying is; if it's a Star Note it not only has to be in Great shape but also be a Rare note right? Other than that, it's a spender right?

Modern star notes are theoretically available at face value. You just have to be at the right place at the right time.
Most modern star note collectors are collecting $1's, $2's, $5's and $10's. Higher denominations, especially $100's have a much smaller collector base, and therefore less demand. You don't get $100's in change. You get $100 notes from bank withdrawals, cash payments, and in my children's case, as gifts. It's hard to justify collecting $100's, so they have to be in great condition.
