Description: Better than most VF20's you will see on this Red Seal STAR note. Great collectable and always...always, in demand! Star serial numbers on U.S. legal tender banknotes are used to replace notes that were damaged or otherwise unusable during the printing process. When an error occurs or a sheet is damaged, a replacement note with a star (*) at the end of its serial number is printed to maintain the correct count of notes in a given series. Here are some key points about star notes on U.S. legal tender banknotes: Replacement Notes: Star notes are replacement notes, often issued for Federal Reserve Notes (FRNs) and other types of U.S. currency. They are used to maintain the correct number of notes in a particular series. Star in Serial Number: The star appears at the end of the serial number and is accompanied by a prefix before the star. For example, a regular serial number might be "A12345678A," while the star note would have a serial number like "A12345678*." Collectibility: Star notes are popular among collectors due to their relative rarity compared to regular-issue notes. Some collectors actively seek out star notes for specific denominations and series. Mint Facility: Star notes are usually printed at a different mint facility than the regular notes. The prefix letter of the serial number indicates the specific Federal Reserve Bank (FRB) that ordered the printing, and the star signifies that it's a replacement note. Varieties: Just like regular-issue notes, star notes come in various denominations and designs. They can be found in $1, $2, $5, $10, $20, $50, and $100 denominations, depending on the series. Series and Year: Star notes are issued for specific series and years of currency. For example, a star note from the 2017A series would have been printed to replace a damaged note from that series. Redeemable: Star notes are fully redeemable at banks or financial institutions just like regular notes. They are legal tender and can be used for transactions like any other U.S. currency. Tracking and Research: Collectors and enthusiasts often track and research star notes. Websites, databases, and specialized publications provide information about the rarity and collectibility of specific star notes.
