There's no such thing as a "Kennedy dollar bill".

An urban legend / conspiracy theory has grown up surrounding a strange coincidence in the numbering of some $1 bills in the 1963 series, but it has no factual basis. The coincidence is that bills distributed through the Federal Reserve District of Dallas (the city where he was assassinated) carry not only the year 1963 (the year of the assassination), the district code number 11 (the month) and the code letter K (Kennedy's initial).

The reality is that

  • Other denominations were also printed in the 1963 series, and all were in circulation months before November.
  • The Dallas district started using those codes in 1914, three years before JFK was even born, and continues to use them to the present day.
The coincidence is odd, but it's still nothing but a coincidence.
