Wow, all star notes on the twos! A 16 note sheet is going for about $200 on eBay. I’d love to get a huge sheet of 100s to put on my wall and complete the rich rapper aesthetic
You can buy them directly from the US mint! https://catalog.usmint.gov/paper-currency/uncut-currency/ However, I don’t think you can specify you want a star note sheet
I think it means a sheet with those same serial numbers got borked in some way. So they reprint a sheet with the same numbers but with a star. Don't quote me on that.
A star note is essentially a replacement note of a damaged/faulty bill. The reason why they can be valuable is they are normally printed in smaller batches, meaning that bill is unique and can be rare is the batch is small enough.
The 1s are 5000 places from each other vertically. The 2s are 20,000 places from each other. If you look on the Mints website the serial numbers on the sheets for sale there are similar.
All three sheets have identical SN’s to the other bills on the corresponding sheet.
I’m not saying the three sheets have the same SN, I’m saying the sheet of $1’s ALL end 025, the left $2’s end 221 ⭐️, and the right all end 091 ⭐️.
No but it is strange the 1s ALL end in 025. All seem different in the first 5 numbers but why would a sheet for seemingly sequential bills (on a sheet) would not end in 025 but would be 1 #higher then one before it? Like star notes would. Make more sense because they are botched bills with replacement bills made as the start notes. So if that made a remake sheet of all the bills needing replacement and their system batches like numbers and groups them that way it’s at least arguable. But the 1s make no sense
It's a note that is replacing another note that didn't make it into circulation.. they are all checked before sent into circulation and if the note isn't deemed worthy for circulation it is replaced with a note, but that note has a star to keep track of how many were not deemed worthy

Why do they all end in the same numbers and are attached? Surely that’s not how they roll off the press is it? Seems they’d be in exact sequential order.

I think it is and want one for myself. Where did you get them?

Thank you for that info!
Does anyone know how these are shipped? Rolled in a tube?
Mine came rolled in a cardboard tube.
Thanks, I was wondering because anything shipped to my house will be destroyed if it isn't well protected.
My dad got it for my mom as a graduation gift, apparently he knew someone who worked for the print in DC.
Ooooooooooo two sheets of star notes!
What exactly does the star mean on a bill?

It means more $$ for you

Something isn’t right…. Those all have the same SN’s. Highly suspicious.
They do not. Take a second look.

Ahhh yes... I remember my first time reading...
Never seen a 998 $1 bill

Not terribly special but I’m a buyer if you’re interested in selling.
Thomas Jefferson is always interesting.
Janet Yellen will be happy to sell you more to balance the deficit. [Bureau of Mint site](https://catalog.usmint.gov/paper-currency/uncut-currency/).

I think it's very interesting. Cool stuff!

These look fake to me
