The most relevant part to know is that paper money is not printed one bill at a time.
They have a useful page detailing the process here. This is an important piece of information in determining the rarity of a star note.īefore digging in further, it's useful to have a basic understanding of how the Bureau of Engraving and Printing produces paper money. The difference between the two types is when in the printing process the star notes are used to replace damaged items. They look exactly same - which is why using the tables and lookup is so important. When a match is found in the database, the two owners will be contacted, and they can then decide if they want to get the notes together to be auctioned off.The Star Note Lookup and production tables have a "type" column that shows either "REGULAR" or "SHEETS." If you have a sheet-type star note and a regular-type star note, nothing visible will indicate which is which. A matched pair could be worth an estimated $15,000! The new 'Project 2013B' website has an online form that allows you to submit the serial numbers of any 2013B star notes that you might have that are not on this list, or ones you discover in the future. There have been reports of collectors spending their 2013B star notes after hearing that Zegers/Winograd had stopped updating their list (which would make the task of finding and bringing together a matched pair nearly impossible). Please let fellow collectors know that the Zegers/Winograd project lives on under Project 2013B. For lack of a better name, I called it "Project 2013B". The Zegers/Winograd project *ceased* maintaining the list in September 2021, but I have stepped in and carried on where they left off. To date, there have been 9 matching pairs confirmed. Karol Winograd of Florida started a project (known as the Zegers/Winograd project) of recording all the serial numbers submitted to them by fellow collectors. In an attempt to help currency collectors find a matching pair of notes, Mr. When the government does it it's legal, when WE do it it's called counterfeiting. There are dollar bills out there circulating with the same exact serial number as another dollar bill! The only difference is one bill has an indicator showing it was printed in Fort Worth, while the DC note does not. The unusual part is they duplicated some serial numbers. In 20, The Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP), printed 2013 $1 New York star notes from two facilities, Washington DC and Fort Worth.
