all those errors and more that you showed I saw in person in the 1960's when I was a kid. I always asked my mom , dad or neighbors to give me the bill to save and not take it back to the bank. unfortunately they didnt understand even my dad who started me in coin collecting didnot recognize the value and rareity of these error notes which were very common back then. I recognized them right away as a kid.

Something that I find regularly is the 3rd numerical digit in the rt upper serial number being very strong or "overinked". I don't know why this occurs so often. Also don't know if they are really collectible or not.

[@bernicepego9463]

Omg... Well now don't I feel stupid after watching this. I remember a few times after cashing my paycheck finding bills that were misaligned and had the lime green FR stamp. I just remembered looking at them and checking to make sure they were real just because they were so oddly different. I felt like I was using fake money and commiting a crime by just having them so I was in a hurry just to get them out of my wallet. Idk why because I didn't do nothing wrong. I guess because you'd think it's money. The Federal reserve wouldn't make a mistake like this and not notice it and send it out in circulation. I'm so happy to have came across your video. I definitely will be keeping my eye out and try not to get rid of it so fast.

Go online to 'My Currency Collection .com' and you can look up how rare they are- how much they are worth depends on rarity and condition- we typically sell them using online auctions such as Ebay. GL!

[@davemork4910]

I suggest that you visit your local coin club and ask if anyone would be interested in your 'Star Notes'. Just so that you are aware; the Bureau of Engraving and Printing is toying with the idea of doing away with the 'Star Note'. They are also in the process of doing away with the 'FW' notation on US Currency notes that are printed at the Fort Worth, Texas Facility. Just sharing info. Good luck

[@CoinsforAmateurs1]

Hello Dave, did not know they were thinking about making those changes? I suppose if they did away with Star Notes the ones we have could potentially increase in value as well? Thanks for the information!

Bru Smith usually the services that do grading like pcgs will have one fee to determine the grade of something. there are also certified graders that can verify errors but their fee might be different. I know here in my town, there are two local coin graders.
