 Very cool! Do you stash them, frame them, or what?

Very nice.  I'm confused by the serial numbers. Your notes begin with 0574xxxx. I thought all full sheet notes started with 99xxxxx. Why the difference? edit - I think it's more accurate to say this sheet came from the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, which produces paper money. The mint produces coins.

The BEP outsourced their eCommerce to the Mint. https://www.uspapermoney.io/general/uncut.html but it doesn't look like this data has been updated for many years. The last update to the general site was "Latest update: July 2024 production data added August 24, 2024"

I forgot to come back to this topic (stupid brain) Quote: I'm confused by the serial numbers. Your notes begin with 0574xxxx. I thought all full sheet notes started with 99xxxxx. Great question, it took me a bit of time to see the numbers increase artier the 0574 but not with the last 2 numbers. I hope at some point Steven can explain it to us..

I will be planning on getting these notes into a nice frame, with glass on both sides so I can display it either way..

Why the difference? The BEP has not pulled the 99xxxxxx sheets for sale as uncut sheets since 2016. Uncut sheets are now pulled from whatever number they decide to pull from.

That's cool Dearborn, and you gave me an idea.  I'm going to order some $1 sheets and use them as wrapping paper for birthday gifts!

It is only available at this point by collectors making it known from observed examples. uspapermoney.info started to display this information based off of collector reporting but what is there is far from complete.

I guess that is better than nothing.
