Interesting... a starred note that is NOT a Starred note. The large star is likely the product of someone with a star rubber stamp, ink pad... and time on his hands. The bill was printed at the Fort Worth BEP facility for a California Federal Reserve District, L12 (possibly San Francisco). Even if it were an authentic starred note (used to denote a bill with the same serial number that was withdrawn from circulation, for any number of reasons) it is of a fairly new series and well worn. I do not believe this bill to have any collector value. My explanation of the star on your bill is purely speculative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Sandon Posted September 12 Popular Post Share Posted September 12 Welcome to the NGC chat board. The inked star on the $20 Federal Reserve Note was applied by someone after the note was placed in circulation. It is not a part of the design or a printing error. These forums are devoted to coins, not currency. Questions about currency are best posted on the "Newbie Note Collecting Questions" forum on the PMG chat board at https://boards.pmgnotes.com/.
