Domanda/Vraag/Frage/Question...I have been previously told that if the star is in front of the S/N, then is is an extended run (greater than 99999999), is this a fact or was someone talking out of their hat?

Good one Duke...I like it...... I imagine that one has the 'In God We Trust' motto on the back?

Actually oih82w8, it depends on what type of note you are looking at;

Federal Reserve Notes and Federal Reserve Bank Notes have their stars as a suffix to the serial number.

Silver Certificates, Gold Certificates, and United States Notes have their stars as a prefix to the serial number.

Yeah, and it sounds like it was a ten gallon hat too...

I'm not really a note guy, but I do have some very nice ones. We have a fantastic scanner here at work, maybe a good project for the weekend.

I have about 50 star notes... but nothing fancy... I think the oldest is a 1995... and maybe a few low print runs... I'm actually kind of debating what to do with them because I don't think the ones I have carry that much of a premium. I only pull from circulation.

yeah I'm just more or less debating if I want to keep them, attempt to sell, or just throw em back out into the world. I'll post a few when I get home though.

And I was inspired by The Duke's Silver Certificate so I found the ugliest one I have to post And no Zee, it is w/o motto as well. If anyone has any uglier than this one be sure to post it!

Actually Zee, I am not conducting a census... I just got that $10 SC star in my first post and just wanted an excuse to show it off. Oh btw I really like that red seal hundred you posted, the one I have isn't a star though.

Hi all!

I don't know a thing about paper currency except how to spend it. I do however have a few. I have four $2.00 bills, two $3.00 bills, one $1,000,000.00 bill, A Haiti UNE GOURDE, and one Japanese 1000 Yen.

Mostly I collect world coins, thinking about expanding my paper money though. Anything special about the two dollar bill I posted?
