About U.S. Bank Notes:
All modern United States currency contains either a 10- or 11-digit serial number in order to make each bill unique.
Ten-digit serial numbers were on all bills until the "new style" came out in 1996. Those bills (and all produced since then) have an 11-digit serial. The serial number consists of the following:
The first letter, only found on the new-style bills, represents the series of the bill. The series indicates the year in which the design of the bill was approved for production. This begins with A, and moves through the alphabet each time a new series is needed (for example, each time there is a new secretary of the treasury, the bill design changes because the secretary's signature is on all currency). You can also find the series of the bill printed directly to the bottom-right of the portrait.
The second letter (or first, if you're looking at an old-style bill) represents the district of the Federal Reserve Bank that your bill was issued from. As there are 12 Federal Reserve Banks, this letter can range from A to L, with A representing Boston and L representing San Francisco.
The eight numerical digits that follow represent a unique ID number. This number increases sequentially as each bill is printed.
Using these digits alone, there would be a possible 99,999,999 bills issued per bank.
The final letter is used to raise the number of possible bills beyond 99,999,999. Altogether, there are a possible 2,499,999,975 serial numbers for each bank.
On occasion, a bill shows up that has a small star in place of the final letter in the serial, and many early issues carried the star in front of the serial number.
This star represents what is known as a replacement note.
When a printing error occurs during a normal press run and renders a set of bills unusable, replacement notes are used instead.
With replacement notes, a set of serial numbers can still have the proper number of bills even if some of the original bills had to be pulled.
The replacement notes have a sequence of their own, using the star as their final "letter."
This allows for 99,999,999 possible replacement notes for any given bank, series, and denomination.
My Terms and Conditions:
What you see is what you get - I did not use any stock photos for this sale.
I combine shipping!
The combined shipping policy is relevant FOR PINS, WINGS, SAMPLE SLABS, COINS, ELONGATED COINS, TOKENS, MEDALS and other SMALL ITEMS, is the full price for the auction with the highest shipping cost and then one additional dollar ($1) for each additional auction won.
Larger items will be packed, weighed, and combined as well.
If you win a few of my sales, please ask to receive a combined invoice for everything you won.
International buyers - you must contact me before you bid to accurately determine the actual shipping cost! 's standard shipping costs are ridiculously high and do not reflect the actual cost of shipping internationally!!!
Returns are not accepted, unless I make a mistake in the listing or I accidently send you the wrong item (and such mistakes do, unfortunately, happen, though seldom).
If you have ANY question - please ask ahead of the closing of the auction, and please be kind as to give me a few hours to respond.
Shipping is via the cheapest method I can find, unless you want me to ship it any other way, such as Priority USPS, UPS, or FedEx. I can ship with any carrier, any way you want!
I use's system to calculate the shipping cost according to your location. Sometimes,'s shipping cost system is stupidly wrong, and the cost is way too much. I have no idea why, since I always enter the correct weight and dimensions of the packed item. Nevertheless, if you think the shipping cost is too high, please send me a message, tell me your zip code and what you see as the shippin cost, and I'll check to see if I can ship for less.
This item comes from a smoke-free, dog loving home. We have a beautiful dog, who loves to spread her hair on everything. Although I do my best to clean everything that I ship out, encountering some of her lovely hair is a possibility.
I love to recycle, so there's a good chance that I will ship in a previously used envelope or box, and use paper and used grocery bags as packing and padding materials.
All of my store items have a MAKE AN OFFER option. If you make a stupid offer, I might counter with a stupid offer of my own. An offer for a few dollars less is reasonable. An offer for half of the listed price is not serious.
Good luck, and enjoy purchasing this from me!
