The BEP does not replicate the exact serial numbers of the defective bills, rather a separate run of notes (with their own sequential serial numbers) is created to mint the exact number of discarded notes. The Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP) uses these Star Notes to ensure that the correct amount of currency is created. The series 1953 bill can be differentiated from past series by the placement of the treasury seal on the right side of the obverse of the note, super-imposed over "TWO".Ī Star Note is a bank note minted to replace a defective note that was not fit for circulation. The note's seal and serial numbers are printed in red. The reverse of the bill depicts Monticello, the Jeffersons' home.
