What Is The Star Note?

All United States dollar bills have a 10 or 11-digit serial number to identify the uniqueness and authenticity of each bill.

Since 1996, 10-digit serial numbers printed on all United States dollars. Prior to that year, dollar bills had an 11-digit serial number.

Each serial number digit has its own function as the identity of the money, consisting of the following:

  • The first letter, found only on new-style bills, represents the year in which the design of the bills was approved and produced. The letter starts with A and continues to the next alphabet. The design of the bills will change every time there is a change in treasurer and secretary because their signatures will be on it in each bill’s currency.
  • The second letter, or the first letter when looking at old-style bills, represents the Federal Reserve Bank where the bills were printed. Since there are 12 Federal Reserve Banks, they are represented in the alphabet from A to L.
  • The next eight digits of the serial number are the unique numbers that identify each banknote. So there could be eight digits that have the serial number 99,999,999 issued by each bank.
  • The last serial number is used when there is a possibility of a serial number of bills exceeding 99,999,999.

Some US dollar bills have a star note at the end of the serial number, but earlier issues have a star note in front of the serial number.

A star note is a replacement note when a printing error occurs on the serial number of a set of bills.

If the serial number is incorrect, one set of bills can no longer be used, but with a star note, one set of serial numbers can still be used.

In general, a 2009 twenty-dollar bill that has a star note on the serial number is not too far from the value of another 20-dollar bill.

However, if you have a serial number with an interesting star note, such as 00000001 or 99999999, and also some money that has serial numbers that are sequential to each other, save it carefully. Maybe your 20-dollar bill will be bought by a collector at a high price.

The dollar has had an inflation increase of 2.56% annually from 2009 to this year. This resulted in an average price increase of 38.91%.
