Low serial number and being a star note is a hot item to bill collectors it's about like we are when we see that red Ryan bottle
As a bill and coin collector it doesn’t matter about it being a low number until it has at least 2 00 in the front. Even if it had 2 00 in the front it wouldn’t bring that much. I looked at the bidders and once it got retail at around $35 it’s been bid on by only two people so they have gotten into a bidding war and they aren’t stopping

I collect these kinds of things along with coins. Maybe that bill is worth 25 dollars. The star notes are made when there is an error while printing the paper as the ink runs everywhere. So they can't use the same serial number so they put a star after it. Also if you spent a bill with a serial number that lol I'm really sorry that bill would have been worth a minimum of $100.

After covid it started speeding up digital transactions, which in turn spend up the digital dollar aka Fedcoin so fiat is not going to be around much in 10 years. Fiat is already antique

That $20 bill serial # 00000236 i was referring to in an earlier reply was part of a set. It was a big sheet that someone cut down. Most likely they took it out of the frame it came in. My uncle has a framed set of 50- $20 bills serial numbers 00000001-00000050. All one sheet in a frame on his basement wall. I love it.

Why are people bidding on this bill? I know I have seen them before, the star notes. I don't understand it.

I don't either. $520 for a 2006 $20? Yikes... I have a very extensive coin collection, and check my change every time, maybe I need to start checking the paper now.
