My aunt brought out here savings account last night that she hides in her draw, because we were talking about starnotes and how my grandma found a ten dollar star note. Out of 26 hundred dollars bills I found a star note. I was flabergasted, and almost couldn't believe it. I told her and she said just take it :hail::hail:I was wondering what it would be worth. Its 2006 HL 17042046 and has one very faint crease down the middle and thats it. Thanks (PS Sorry for the bad writen cause I'm very tired and excited because I have never held a hundred dollar bill before)
It's from a full run of 3,200,000 notes--and there were an incredible 10 runs of stars printed for the 2006 $100 HL..*, totalling 10,560,000 notes. In circulated condition, you're going to have a very hard time getting more than $100 for this one. But, hey, it's still a hundred bucks....
Free is good but IMO, the bill doesn't qualify as being collectible. You made a $100 bucks but that star will never be worth a penny over face value. Way too many of the 2006 series $100 stars produced, let alone SF which is most common along with NY. 2006 $100 stars are the only star notes I do not collect and they are they only stars I have ever spent. I get TONS of them from my tellers and I buy them just to be nice and act like I want them but then I turn around and spend them right away. Never held a $100 bill before? Well congrats on this great milestone of ones life. -tbud
I found this one today. worth anything over face value ? here is the info from a website $100 2006 - hb07679528* [TABLE="width: 550"] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] Run Size 1,920,000 [/TR] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] Total Printed 11,520,000 (see production tables) [/TR] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] Fr.

What about a 2006 one with the serial number as HL12912137 in great condition except for one little creace in the middle.
The serial number and condition won't have a bearing on it's value, it is still $100, unless your serial number is under 00000100. If it is a radar, repeater or such; it will be valuable because of the serial number and not so much because of the bills denomination.
Thank you now I can get rid of it to get better old money. I have a stack of other old dollars but a few I'm not sure if there worth anything but there face value. 2006 5 dollar star note serial number ja03263619 also the serial number is on the other side for some reason. I got it at the bank and it does not even have any problems.
I just need to know what to keep so here are some more. 1993 20 dollar bill hardly looks touched. E68686489G 1995 20 dollar bill looks good except for a small ink spill. G90041155D 1985 100 dollar bill small crease in the middle. C16967342A 1981 A 100 dollar bill small crease in the middle. G00592323A 1950 C 10 dollar bill ok condition multiple creases. C38503753C 1988 5 dollar bill good condition one crease. G90328823A 1963 A one dollar bill multiple creases. C27664424D 1969 B one dollar bill as crisp as a dollar just made literally. A72505607A
I didn't see anything described as GEM, crisp, uncirculated. Grab a copy of Bank Note Reporter and look up each note, like I did, and see that everything is relatively common. No star notes, or fancy numbers. Get yourself a LED flashlight and shine in across the note at a very low angle and look for folds. It's OK to see embossing, like in this photo.
The premiums would be around $5 to $7.50 over face on most. The $100 might be a little more if we knew for sure it's grade. They are still a little too numerous in the market and haven't aged much since their printing. Many collectors can easily find these on their own and not pay any premium at all. Just put them away, and when your as old as me :>) .... see if the value has changed. Otherwise, Steve's option would be second choice.
Most of mine look like they have never been touched except for the 1950 C 10 dollar bill that one is in ok condition, but it's not to bad. I found all of this in my normal money so I am fine if I do not have anything worth much more than face value.
