This is your NEW connection point for matching 2013B ‘Duplicated Serial Number’ star notes.
Project 2013B 2.0 is dedicated to uniting collectors and individuals who possess $1 star notes from the 2013 series (with a B seal) that feature the rare ‘Duplicated Serial Number’ error. This error, stemming from a printing oversight by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, resulted in a specific range of serial numbers being printed twice—once at the Washington DC facility and again at the Fort Worth, TX facility.
Typically, each $1 bill within a given series is assigned a unique serial number. However, the 2013B series of ‘New York’ (B seal) Federal Reserve Notes deviated from this norm due to the error. The primary distinction between the two notes lies in a small indicator that reveals whether the note was printed in Fort Worth or Washington DC.
This duplication error is limited to series 2013B bills. For a bill to qualify as a valid error note, its duplicated serial number must fall within one of the following ranges:
Serial numbers outside of these ranges were not affected by the duplication error at the Fort Worth BEP facility and do NOT qualify.
The ‘star’ symbol after the serial number indicates that the bill is a replacement note, often referred to as a star note. These notes are printed to replace defective or withdrawn banknotes and serve as a control mechanism to ensure accurate accounting of the total number of banknotes in circulation.
Check your $1 star note from the 2013B series. Ensure it has a ‘B’ seal and a serial number within the error ranges.
Verify your bill’s serial number falls within these ranges:
Look for the Face Plate Text:
Submit your bill’s 8-digit serial number (omit the ‘B’ and the ‘star’) to the Project 2013B 2.0 database.
After submission, your bill will be added to the database. You’ll be contacted if a match is found. We are checking daily!
If a match is detected, you’ll be notified to connect with the other bill’s owner for further negotiations. You are now part of an exclusive group of collectors!
Double-check that your bill has a ‘B’ seal (shown in the image below) and that it is a $1 note.
Also, confirm that your bill is from the 2013 series (as indicated on the right). The serial number should start with a ‘B’ and end with a star symbol.
The main difference between notes printed in Washington and those from Fort Worth can be found in the Face Plate Text. Notes printed in Fort Worth will have an ‘FW’ prefix, while those printed in Washington will not.
Collectors often aim to create a ‘matching pair’ by acquiring the corresponding note from another owner. While these notes may not be worth much individually, their value can increase significantly when paired, potentially reaching $10,000 or more, depending on their condition and serial numbers. For instance, a note with a very low serial number (such as 00000001) would be worth considerably more than a note with a higher serial number (like 09563067).
To date, only around 20 matched pairs have been auctioned, so the full market value is still being established. As time goes on and more notes are removed from circulation, the rarity and value of a matched pair could increase.
Project 2013B 2.0 maintains a detailed database of serial numbers submitted by currency collectors and the general public. To protect privacy, email addresses are kept confidential. When both the Fort Worth and Washington versions of a serial number are submitted, the project administrator contacts both parties to inform them of a ‘matching pair.’
Remember to check your spam folder for notifications.
Menu, if you click “VIEW DATABASE” and scroll, you’ll see the database, which is where your submitted entries are viewable.
If you continue to scroll, you’ll see a section labeled “Previously Registered Database“.
Its a database of the Project2013B Duplicate Serial Numbers. This database had been previously accessible.
This data was available and free for all to view, search and/or download, but it was recently taken offline. We have made this data available once again.
****please note, there are over 50000 entries in the previous database PLUS the new entries that are added daily…so give the pages time to load!
If you own a 2013B $1 star note that isn’t in our database yet and it fits all of the guidelines…feel free to submit it here on our site!
After Submitting
Once you’ve submitted your bill, there’s no further action required unless your email address changes. If a matching bill is found, the project administrator will contact you directly.
Matched Pair Found?
If your bill matches another in our database, you’ll be notified within 24 hours. Once both owners have responded, we’ll share the other owner’s email address so you can begin negotiations. You may choose to sell your bill, purchase the other bill, or auction the pair together. Project 2013B 2.0 will provide you with detailed guidance on how to proceed.
Privacy Assurance
Your email address will never be publicly visible or shared. It is used solely by the database administrator to notify you when your bill has a match.
!!!Caution…Don’t get ripped off, just because the Database displays what appears to be a matching serial number you might come across on ebay or another platform, nothing is factual, until verified!!!
DONT BUY WHAT YOU THINK IS A MATCH, SOLEY BASED OFF OF PROJECT 2013B2.0’s DATABASE, IT COULD BE A SCAM!!!
Connecting collectors of rare 2013B $1 star notes with matching serial numbers for unique pair opportunities.
