Star note ... Any value

This came from a fresh pack at the bank the other day. I only collect nationals. Any value?

    The first thing I research on modern notes is rarity, looking at the production numbers here,
    uspapermoney.info/serials/f2013_s.html

    I see a strange footnote that pertains to Fort Worth printing but yours is a WA D.C. printing

    "In early 2015, runs #1, #2, and #3 of the New York star notes began to appear in circulation, even though they had not been reported by the BEP...."

  • OK not sure what exactly that means. If anyone is interested in it feel free to shoot me a PM.

    I used this link the other day to lookup a star note I got back. I'm not a paper currency collector so I found it very helpful!

    The rest of the footnote says: "The June and July 2016 production reports then listed those three runs again, this time as Fort Worth products. Notes from all three Fort Worth runs have been seen in circulation, so the duplicate printings did in fact occur, and it appears that duplicate serials were in fact issued."

    This is a HUGE challenge for collectors of $1.00 notes--find matching a serial numbers from the FW and DC runs. Heck of a trophy for someone to pull off. The note, pictured above, is in that duplicate run series from Boston, DC run.

    That would be quite the trophy duo of notes!

    I will give you $2 for it, and $5 to whoever comes up with the FW matching serial. :*B)
