RK55 Pillar of the Community United States 2189 Posts	Posted 11/13/2023 9:46 pm I am curious, is there any significance on why there are only 7 digits in the serial number since most I see have 8 digits? Was it an earlier print or is it just "no big deal"? Thanks in advance! RK Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 11/14/2023 08:25 am On today's small notes, 0's are added at the front of the serial number to maintain 8 digits. On large notes, the serial number started at a simple 1 and went up from there, so you can have anywhere from one to eight digits in the number.
