SteveInTampa Pillar of the Community United States 4637 Posts	Posted 10/16/2023 10:40 pm I have to agree with Mr.Frog. Trinary is a hype word primarily used on Planet ebay to describe a note with nothing else going for it. It's been found to be occasionally successful in separating hard earned money from unsuspecting buyers wallets. Report this Post to the Staff

january1may Pillar of the Community Russian Federation 5172 Posts	Posted 10/17/2023 02:26 am As it's a $1, I would have kept it for the neat pattern, but yeah there's a lot of trinaries and they're not that rare. (Back-of-envelope calculation: 3^8987/6 = 6561120 ~= 800k, so there'd be about 0.8% trinary bills. IIRC more accurate estimates give an answer closer to 0.7%, but that still means one in 150ish.)
