Star notes are used by the BEP (Bureau of Engraving and Printing) to replace misprinted/damaged currency before it goes into circulation. These replacement notes are printed just like normal notes, except there is a star printed in the serial number. They are used to maintain a correct count of notes in a serial number run. Star notes are more scarce than notes with a normal serial number, and as such, are widely collected by numismatists.

Due to the uniqueness of each item, please refer to the photos provided in this auction. We offer high resolution images of each item rather than a written description of condition.
