Can't Find This Star Note Catalog Number 1 1

[Hobby Hero]

Hello all,

So I have a stack of these $2 Star Notes I'm trying to get graded but can't seem to find a corresponding catalog number for them. I checked here: https://colnect.com/en/banknotes/list/country/225-United_States_of_America/series/55199-1976_Federal_Reserve_Notes_-_Small_Size_1976_Series/face_value/2-2 but did not see it. It looks just like the P-461 D except its the reissue. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks!

Fr 1935-D* is the Friedberg catalog number.

The note looks weird, was it cut from a sheet? Based on the availability and condition of this note it does not warrant grading.

I don't know the origin of the bills. Several of them look to be hand cut and all end in same in similar serial number half all end in 3546 and half end in 4437 so don't know if that means they all come from the same sheet or not.

Hmm, definitely sounds like they were cut from a sheet, and poorly at that. Uncut sheets were sold by the B.E.P. to collectors, cutting notes from sheets like this further decreases their value. Also, I wouldn't be surprised if someone tried to make a few "error" notes from the sheet either.
