manofwar Posted March 24, 2023 Report Share Posted March 24, 2023 I totally admit to being only just a year or so into this hobby, but since just have seen very few what I call ,Hard Numbers, 500's and 1000, and the corresponding number before to create the pair. To date I have found E 00319,999 E and 320,000 E, I have recently sent off for grading numbers 599,500 and another, But I have been looking a rediculous amount for these numbers, I literally probrobably look at 1000 numbers or a set of numbers per day, yes I know I am OCD , extremly so. May I ask am I just missing them or whatever? Thoughts? Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenntucky Mike Posted March 25, 2023 Report Share Posted March 25, 2023 It doesn't seem that you are looking for what are considered traditional fancy numbers, so which serial numbers are you looking for? People hunt and/or have people such as banktellers and the like pull or set aside notes and straps with fancy numbers and those notes typically go straight into a dealer's inventory, auction or collection. If you looking for a number that is only significant to you then you'll have to do a lot of searching but they're out there. Sequential serial numbers don't carry a premium because that is how they are released, if you went to a bank and requested a new strap of $1's they would all be numbered sequentially. If your looking for the first and last number of a production run that us much more difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manofwar Posted March 29, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2023 Hello Fenntucky Mike, I appreciate your reponse and I am really a weird collector, I buy what I like for the sake of wanting to, most of the time I do the buying alot at first and begin crash course studying. My biggest probliem is the damn computor and pictures, some times it works and some times not. I do have a question from a more informed scource if you do not mind. I think you have did seen I have those BEP Notes, all serial numbers start with 8888, then of course as normal produce individual numbers to complete the task.. I have 24 notes and of them 24 notes I have 16 are litereally exactly the same, in all ways, why would this not qualify with more and more eamples, in which I have a another but totally different.. My question is this, do you know or have any connection to the B of E & P Fenntucky Mike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not quite understanding what you're trying to say here but if it's that you have notes with matching serial numbers that is a cool find.

Fenntucky Mike Posted March 30, 2023 Report Share Posted March 30, 2023 Are you looking for the series 2013 star notes with duplicated serial numbers from the Western Facility (FW)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manofwar Posted March 31, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2023 Hey Fenntucky Mke,Yes I do jump around a bit, just part of the drug regimine I am on for my lung situation, I would your patients. First, the 500 or 1000 numer deal is about ciollecting certain groups like experimentals having stars would not be a nice add on as ell,as though I truly do bot understand collecting a corrected error.. but to each their own. The other focus is going to by what I will call them :POPOVER'S", like the 320000000 and 319999., just have to be more patient. The other issue is abought the duplication litterally twinning 3 sets of notes apparently in run of what I would just saying CrapHappens, like 16,800 total produced. I do be the issues they, "(B,E, & P")" had as ust happened, and I am still stuying the $5.99 note deal. So what do you collect? You have obviously deep into this sute, is it yours? Sincerely, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I collect mostly foreign currency with Ukraine and former Eastern Bloc countries being my primary focus. I dabble with obsoletes and scrip from Michigan and I'll pull star and fancy numbers from circulation as I come across them.
