34A series on a common district Chicago.. Looks VF30 or 35. A couple of closed staple holes. Some light black ink smeared on back. Should be graded or put in a better sleeve.

The BEP usually issues complete district sets. Do you have pictures of the 3 remaining districts Boston, Philadelphia, and Cleveland? These 2011xxxx $2s are series 2003A and have the "D" suffix. I know they sold out, but I don't remember much demand for them on the open market. A $2 collector might know.

Minor over inking of the serial numbers. Considered a minor error with no premium attached.

The note looks fake to me. That line at the top shouldn't be there. The detection pen doesn't work on a note from that series.

Looks like you will need a pack of currency sleeves. What grade are they? VG, F, VF?

I think it would be better for the hobby if these 50's with 11 stars were enjoyed by many collectors instead of just 1 wealthy collector. What's the point in having a star note if you can't show it off.

To know if it's a 68 you need to examine the note outside its holder.

Some fuel for the cashless fire.


Having something tangible makes you aware of your spending. When you remove that people overspend and get themselves in debt. People with credit cards have larger amounts of debt. People who switched from credit cards to cash tend to have less debt. I'm not saying do away with credit cards, but cash spending can result in more responsible purchasing.

Figuring out the run size is the difficult part. Using the formulas you get i3 and C2

They were not printed right next to each other. They were printed using different plates. Front plates 43 and 44 and back plates 23 and 25.

Consecutive serial numbers are not printed on the same sheet. The back plate numbers are sometimes different.

I would try contacting a Canadian paper money dealer and asking them about the process. Doesn't Davenport Numismatics (davenport-banknotes.com) send a lot of notes out of Canada, I'd give them a try.

They might because it's only $1. I think you are supposed to have 50.1% with a serial number. You have the first part but not the last.

They're all like that. The flag is waving. It's not upside down. You can tell by the stripes.
