Cool Serial Number - Skip Note with a Ladder flavor

Showing off a couple of bills I got at a recent currency sale. One such bill has a serial number that makes it a "skip note" with a ladder component. Nice addition to my collection

Also known as an alternator - alternating 0's in this case. The fact that it counts down by 10's makes it more valuable than 10705080 for instance. Definitely a keeper.

Very good to know! Thanks for that and thanks for stopping by!

I have been throwing back notes similar to those but none so far have been skipping every 10 numbers in descending order like yours is. If I found that one I am sure I would have kept it.. Another name for that I think is a skip note but I could be wrong so don't hold me to that. GD

I can't remember if I've found any like that in the wild. The green book categorizes them and says most of them are worth face value.

$100 face value?! Score!

[@cool-serial]

Yeah that was a happy surprise 😁

I did a little research on the 60504030 note. It's a "counting 10s Ladder" or "Multiples of 10 Ladder" and there are only 17 of these in every 96M block run. Really rare. More rare than a binary radar, or even true binary. Wanna sell it to me, lol?

You're my kind of collector! One thing I run up against a lot is exposure to the established currency dealer community and what they view as worth even considering for sale. I'm convinced it's mostly peer pressure, but the more I see of it, the less likely I am to pursue joining that club! I'll probably keep the bill for now but I'll remember you if I decide to part with it.

@@cool-serial Yeah, the old guard is really down on the new fancy serial number trend. But you can't deny it's on an upswing!
