    Oh well, no matter what any of us would say, even sending him pics of multiple notes with the same number, would change his mind. Like arguing with a brick or a post or:

    I am not a currency dealer, I am a coin seller. The serial numbers (digits) are exactly the same. I make no metion of suffixs or lettering of any sort. It is a 1 in a million shot of finding any two notes with the same numbers! As having been on a private tour of the BEP, I was told that duplicate serial numbers on different face values of notes pose security threats as well as the ability to counterfit higher value denominiations with lower value currency. I have sold many sets similar to these sets to currency dealers who have graded them and made lots of profit by having them. It is not the norm for same serial numbers, it is indeed a rarity and very unusual to see and to have in your hand.

    I won't debate you but, look up the definintion of a (star note) it intact exsists because no two notes can have the same serial number AND it is for inventory control...
  • Amazing !!!! I wonder if he has ever found a nickel and a dime with the same date !!!! Or is it the same coin can't have two different date ? Whatever Amazing !!!
  • Dan - he changed the listing... it originally said that the same #'s cant exist OR should be replaced by stars OR be destroyed. Even though one is a 2006 $1 and the other a 1995 $2.
  • the saga of Col Green and the 1929 serial #1's would cause conniptions

  • Everyone is missing the point, these are the super rare "Identical Atlanta George District Notes"... as opposed to Atlanta Georgia. These are something special for sure....

  • The seller is too conservative. Start with one note. That is a 1 in 1 chance. Now the chance of finding any 8 digit note to match is indeed 1 in 100,00,000. But I am not impressed when they start mixing denomination and years.

    "Well, Mr. President, we've printed 100 million bank notes of various denominations already. And since the letters and dates aren't worth mentioning, we're just going to close up shop and do something else with our lives."

  • By Jove, he must be on to something. No Federal Reserve District city (mintmark ?!) is shown on that note.
  • A Carson City 1953 Two dollar bills is super rare !!! Doge sez 'Much Wow"
  • I think he's looking for a P or D mint mark or the much more rare S mint mark.
