Change-OVER PAIRS

I am very new, less than a year, on my journey into Paper Currency Collecting, and after getting quite spread out to begin with due mainly to ignorance,I have decided to focusing on "Cross or Change Over pairs with liberal boundaries.
First I bought a $1.00 solid 1's and then the exact same dame$1.00 note 10 years apart, $10c 1934 pair, then a $1.00 with exactly matching serial numbers.
I wonder if any one else collects "Crossovers", found in the "standard Guide to U S Small sized paper money?
Thanks,
manofwar1

    I am surprised by the fact not one single dealer I have spoken have zero knowledge of "Crossovers, or to the auction house folks and how few have ever seen one and know of no one that collects them, even the most obvious form of crossover, like series A to B or the like. This sees to me to be one of the most obvious thing to try to collect and something I would think would sell for BIG Dollars in great condition and or the higher the denomination..
    I guess I will be the nut case and will be a buyer when ever I can find them and have the funds available, look at the back of "The Standard Guide To Small-Size U.S. Paper Money, page 346 of the 6th edition.

    The correct term is changeover pairs, not crossover. The term crossover has no significance in paper money collecting.

    And while I applaud your liberalization of defining the set you want to collect, only the 1934C/1934D $10 pair qualifies as a changeover pair. And COPs are a great thing to collect. You can get a lot of variation.

    I believe he means Crossover from one grading agency to another

    Good Morning All,
    Jamericon is correctly describing my concept of "Cross-Over" Pairs, synchr, it is titled on page 346 in the APPENDIX 1, 6th edition of the book I spoke of in my last posting.
    The reason I chose "Cross-Over" and likely should not have, is because my "Liberalization", as jamericon spoke of was the thought one can not only cross-over series, 1934 C to 1934 D, as well as a time period, like my 10 year cross-over in the solid 1's. I believe as a hobby the ability to broadly define the criteria of the eaning to a certain extent, but I probably went to far in this case considering I am relying on the authors title of and the objects to fit his classification, so from now on I will use "Change-Over" to be more in-line with numismatic consistency and when needed speak of pairs crossing a time period as such.
    Thanks for the inputs,

    On my Notaphilyc Culture hobby site, I have created a NOTABLE TERMS page which may (or may not) be useful.

    Did your note Cross Over from PCGS-C to PMG?

    Well, I first have to ask what do you mean "Cross-Over: from PCGS-C? What is that?

    Cross-over or Crossover is the act of taking a note graded by Company X and submitting it to Company Z in hopes of getting a better grade or a second opinion. Most hope for a bump in the grade.

    I wonder what "Change-Over", is the most valuable for one, or most important, or historically desired?
