Best Answer

A star note is any US bill, not just a silver certificate, that has a star instead of a letter at the start or end of its serial number.

Star notes are printed to replace a bill that had a defect and was destroyed. Because bills are printed in large groups it's impractical to reprint specific serial numbers. Instead, a new set of serial numbers is started and a star is added to indicate that these notes are replacements. Collectors generally prefer star notes and it may make the bill be worth a bit more.

Any note, not just a silver certificate, is a star note if the leading or trailing character of the serial number is a star rather than a letter; e.g. *12345678A or S321654987* A star on any US bill means that it was issued as a replacement for a bill that was damaged during printing.

Instead, a new set of serial numbers is started and a star is added to indicate that these notes are replacements.
