#10 Consecutive 2017 Series One Dollar Federal Reserve note STAR sealed Original packed BRICK out of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. As many might know the star production will end with a transition period of the 2021-2023 series. They are no longer printing star notes. “Replacement notes”. We graded the brick as shown choice to gem uncirculated. How do we know these are all stars? Looking from the side you will notice the BEP bands around each pack are striped. Striped are star packs. The sticker bar code has original Block RUN printed on it.
The original run was L-F BLOCK L63430001-L64000000F.
From the BEP NEWS RELEASE MARCH 2023:
The new equipment will operate in a manner that will result in nonconsecutive sequencing of new straps of notes. Even more significant from a collector’s standpoint, the new equipment will not produce the star notes that replace imperfect notes in a strap of newly printed notes. Star notes will continue to be produced by traditional banknote production equipment until further notice.
The new printing process means that future serial number patterns in a strap may contain gaps and will no longer be in consecutive sequence. The first note in a non-sequential strap is not expected to have a serial number ending in “01” and the last is not expected to have a serial number ending in “00.”
The transition period for the new printing process will last several years and will be phased in by denomination, starting this year. Only the $1 denomination is currently in production. FedCash Services says non-sequential straps of the $1 note will be available based on local inventories and distribution schedules and that until the new printing process transition has ended, sequential and non-sequential straps will coexist in deliveries. NS-LEPE note packaging and labeling will be indistinguishable from sequential note packaging.
