Collector of numeral seals.That's the 1928 and 1928A series of FRNs with a number rather than a letter in the district seal. Owner/operator of Bottom Line Currency
I got these as change from a store a while back. Not really recent, but the only notes beside current modern usage notes. I like the blue serial numbers and seal.

I just purchased a $20 star note that is in the "1st run" of the 2017 series (Dec. 2017). It is also a low run of 320K and is an early printing of that run.
I received this note today. It's 1 of 4 star notes in the 2017 series that are 320K run. I sorta like this note because I'm from Jersey. Maybe one day I'll get lucky and acquire an ND* note (160K run).
I'm getting into banknote collecting, and what's drawing me into specific things is the work of particular artists, Particularly RDE Oxenaar for his legendary Dutch banknotes.
I love $2 bills, star notes and consecutive serial numbers. These bills are crisp, beautiful and uncirculated. When I first saw them I was all a flutter.
A very dated and anachronistic design, still handsigned in 1965! Belfast Banking Co was not a very large institution but the notes they issued are rather ignored because of the plain design. The bank merged and became a part of Northern Banking Co in 1970 and the successor bank is Danske Bank.
In memory of my kitty Seryozha 14.2.1996 ~ 13.9.2016 and Shadow 3.4.2015 - 16.4.21
Another rather dated design, even in 1924 when this note was issued. In 1924 this note would have circulated in two countries - Northern Ireland as part of the United Kingdom and the Irish Free State. Beginning in 1928-9 Ireland's Currency Commission monopolized currency issue in the Free State and began issuing the Consolidated ie Ploughman and Central Bank issues.
The Consolidated notes were issued by the 8 banks doing business in the Irish Free state. Bank of Ireland was the largest of the "ploughman" issuers and continued to use it's unique designs on Belfast Northern Ireland notes.

A couple of years older than the previous oldest and not colourised like the 1920 version.
I am not a big fan of Operation Bernhard, I prefer the real McCoy of the BoE tenner:
I love anachronistic designs that served well beyond when they should have. The BoE design dates to 1855 and was used until 1956 on the white fiver. The tenner was only popular in England, the other countries of the United Kingdom largely avoided the denomination.

I won this 1855 proof at Heritage a little while back. It's probably unique on a rare bank with only a small handful of issued notes known, and a couple of proofs. I also have the $2 from an auction this summer.
@mbwizkid: Interesting story, the man's name is Red Jacket and according to Wikipedia:
Red Jacket (known as Otetiani in his youth and Sagoyewatha [Keeper Awake] Sa-go-ye-wa-tha as an adult because of his oratorical skills) (c. 1750–January 20, 1830) was a Seneca orator and chief of the Wolf clan, based in Western New York. On behalf of his nation, he negotiated with the new United States after the American Revolutionary War, when the Seneca as British allies were forced to cede much land following the defeat of the British; he signed the Treaty of Canandaigua (1794). He helped secure some Seneca territory in New York state, although most of his people had migrated to Canada for resettlement after the Paris Treaty.
Red Jacket's speech on "Religon for the White Man and the Red" (1805) has been preserved as an example of his great oratorical style.
Red Jacket took his name, one of several he used as an adult, from a highly favored embroidered coat given to him by the British for his wartime services. The Seneca allied with the British Crown during the American Revolution, both because of their long trading relationships and in the hope that the British could limit colonial encroachment on their territory. After their ally lost, the Seneca were forced to cede much of their territory to the United States. Many of their people resettled in Canada at what is now the Six Nations Reserve in Ontario. In the War of 1812, Red Jacket supported the American side.

George Washington gave him a peace medal for his works, which is what he's wearing around his neck in this portrait.
I'm not sure why he was chosen for this banknote, however! I can't find any connection to this small town in Rhode Island.

I laughed so hard when I first read the post from @CharlotteDude with his $500. note
Okay, certainly not in the same category, but I kind of suffer the same fate ...
I don't always put away notes, but when I do I kind of wreck the coin budget!
