But not in Los Angeles tonight, where Jody Stephens, the sole surviving original member, will join up with a cast of estimable singers and musicians to present a full evening of Big Star songs, including a full 50th anniversary run-through of the band’s classic debut album, “#1 Record.” If you want to hear Big Star’s music played live, that generally involves traveling very far, in a time machine. banknotes have been for star notes.“I never travel too far / Without a little Big Star,” Paul Westerberg of the Replacements famously once sang, getting children by the millions - or at least hundreds of thousands - to check out an under-appreciated band of the ’70s in the 1980s. Some of the highest prices paid for modern (post-1928) U.S. By their nature, star notes are more scarce than notes with standard serial numbers and as such are widely collected by numismatists. They are used to maintain a correct count of notes in a serial number run. When notes are discovered that have been printed incorrectly (such as having the serial numbers upside down, etc.) the misprinted 'error notes' are replaced with star notes because no two bills within a certain series can be produced with the same serial number. In the US, the Bureau of Engraving and Printing inspects currency for printing errors prior to releasing notes into general circulation. These have been used by various countries around the world including Australia and the United States. Many early issues carried the star in front of the serial number. It is a fun, accessible form of collecting you may not have thought of.Ī star note is also a bank note that has an asterisk (*), or star, after the serial number. You might want to go to eBay and focus on a theme such as the 2 dollar Star note or the Silver Certificate Star note. This is like collecting state quarters or, once, wheat pennies, inasmuch as there is a chance you will get one with your change. As mentioned, fewer than 1 percent of bills in circulation are Star notes, so they are collector?s items and increase in value over face value.
One of these gets inserted into the run in place of each botched note. Since reprinting a bill with the same serial number as the botched one is impractical, the Mint instead prints a separate run of Star notes with unique serial numbers instead of a letter at one end of the serial number, there?s a star. Mints botches the printing of a bill after the serial numbers are applied, it must be replaced one-for-one so the mint can account for every bill issued (If it?s botched before the serial number goes on, it just gets thrown away). This currency is called replacement notes, otherwise known as Star notes. currency in regular circulation comprises less than 1 percent of the bills in circulation, making it a desirable collectible.
