$2 1976 Federal Reserve Star Note.
What are Star Note?
Replacement bills indicated by a star symbol at the end of the serial number instead of a letter. Printed to replace defective notes during production, they typically represent less than 1% of notes produced. Their relative scarcity compared to regular notes drives their premium value, especially for star notes from smaller print runs or those with fancy serial numbers, which can command significant collector premiums.

Serial # MF69697474B just curious after it’s graded what the value might be. Series 2013
Hi Justin,
Unless your note is pack‑fresh and virtually perfect (PMG/PCGS 68 EPQ or better), grading will cost more than any resale premium. A typical strap‑fresh Series 2013 $100 graded 66 EPQ ends up worth only $110 – $120, while grading, shipping, and insurance usually run $30 – $40 per note. Circulated notes fall right back to face value.
Why this particular note isn’t rare
Real‑world pricing for modern $100s (recent 2025 auction results)
(Prices rounded from recent GreatCollections, Heritage, and eBay certified‑note sales.)
Grading economics (PMG & PCGS Banknote, 2025)
*Single‑note submission; adding one note to a larger bulk order can drop the per‑note shipping share.
Break‑even line: You need a solid 67 EPQ just to cover the grading bill, and an 68 EPQ to come out appreciably ahead.
Should you submit?
Grade it only if all of these are true:
If any handling flaw is visible—or if you just pulled it from circulation—enjoy it as spending money and keep hunting for star notes, fancy serials, or dramatic printing errors, where grading genuinely adds value.
Hope that clarifies the numbers! If you want a quick centering check, post a straight‑on photo and I’ll give you an opinion on likely grade before you spend the fee.
I have a 100 dollar star note 2009 SERIES
JL02602079* IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. Does anyone know the value Thank you
