Red seals and serial numbers indicate that a bill is a United States Notes. US Notes were very similar to the current Federal Reserve notes in that they weren't backed by gold or silver in the Treasury.
US Notes were issued from 1862 up till the 1960s. Because there was no monetary difference between the 2 forms, US Notes were phased out and all subsequent bills were issued as Federal Reserve Notes to save on printing costs.
A star next to the serial number on a 1935 silver dollar certificate indicates that the original serial number on the note had to be replaced due to an error in printing or damage to the original serial number. The replacement serial number is denoted by the star symbol to differentiate it from the regular serial numbers. These star notes are typically rarer and more valuable to collectors due to their limited production.
I have a 2 dollar bill with Jefferson on it, serial number B 06184684 A. The 2's are in silver, the writing unites states of America, two dollars, and behind Jefferson's head are also in silver. What does this mean and what is the value, it is uncirculated, Series 2003 A with green seal.
The big letter to the left of Washington's portrait indicates the Federal Reserve branch where the bill was originally distributed. The same letter is found at the beginning of the serial number. The last letter indicates how many runs of serial numbers have been used, where A is the first, B is second, and so on. Then there will be a tiny letter and number, such as J5 or FW D191, which is the plate position during printing.
If it's a modern bill it may be worth a bit more than $100, but not a lot* more. Some people collect so-called "star notes" so you might get 5 to 10 percent above face value for it, more if the bill is uncirculated or with an older (e.g. pre-1970) date.The star at the end of the serial number means that when the original bill was printed it had a defect in the serial number and had to be destroyed. Because no two bills can be printed with the "same" serial number the new bill printed in its place has a star at the end to signify that it's a duplicate of the destroyed bill.FWIW there's no such word as "alot". There's a lot and allot, but they mean very different things.
Nothing about the denomination of the bill or its value. It might be part of a plate position indicator or some other "housekeeping" feature of the bill, that's all.
This is the serial number. Each bill has a unique serial number that identifies it.
You can look up a two dollar bill, but if you mean specific as in serial number, you are the only one that possesses that specific two dollar bill with that certain serial number.
The serial number on a dollar bill and other currency refers to the note series, and the Federal Reserve bank that issued the note. The serial number is used to keep track of currency.
Qs are printed as part of the serial number on older 1 dollar bills. It doesn't mean anything.
The value of a five dollar bill is five dollars. It's not clear what you mean by "consecutive serial numbers." If you mean that the bill's serial number looks like "12345678" or something, then a collector might be willing to pay a small premium for it as a curiosity. If you mean that you have two or more five dollar bills where the serial numbers are consecutive, they're worth five dollars each, period.
The star after the serial number on a 1934 Twenty dollar bill signifies that the note is a replacement or a star note. Star notes are used to replace misprinted or damaged notes before they are released into circulation. They are given serial numbers with a star at the end to differentiate them from regular notes.
It means that you have too much time on your hands! ~SonnieB
A star next to the serial number on any US bill means that the original note with that number was damaged in printing, and the star note is the replacement.
There are many numbers on the dollar bill. The most prominent ones are the amount of the currency. There is also a row of numbers on the front and back of the bill that contains the individual serial number for that particular bill.
It has no particular meaning. Serial numbers are counters and a security feature; they're printed sequentially so your bill is simply one of many billions.
The star at the end of the serial number means that when the original bill was printed it had a defect in the serial number and had to be destroyed. Because no two bills can be printed with the "same" serial number the new bill printed in its place has a star at the end to signify that it's a replacement for the destroyed bill. Having a bill with a star on it can mean that it's worth a couple dollars more unless it's a collectors item.
A star on a 20 dollar bill signifies that the bill is a replacement note for one that was misprinted or damaged during production. It has its own unique serial number and is considered rare and collectible among some currency enthusiasts.
