What do the numbers in a currency serial number stand for?

They're simply sequential numbers printed on the bills by a device that looks a bit like an old-fashioned mechanical odometer in a car. Every bill that's printed clicks the counter up by one digit. Except for "unusual" numbers (e.g. 00000005, 33333333, 12345678, etc.) the serial number on a bill does not affect its value.


What is the exactly value of pi?

What is the routing number of Washington Mutual bank in Washington State?

Your routing number is the first set of nine numbers you see printed at the bottom of your checks. A symbol or space sometimes separates it from the remaining printed numbers. Financial institutions use routing numbers to accelerate the transfer of funds. When you set up direct deposits, automatic payments, wire transfers, etc., you are usually asked to provide your routing number. Each state is assigned a nine-digit identifier by the American Bankers Association (ABA). Your bank prints that number on your checks to reflect the state where the account is located.


What does the serial number on one dollar bill supposed to mean and how do you know if it has a misprint?

The serial number is simply a sequential number telling in what order the bill was printed with respect to others. It also includes a letter prefix indicating what Federal Reserve district the bill was printed for. Common serial number misprints include: > A stuck counter. There are two counter wheels (kind of like old-fashioned car odometer wheels) that rotate to print the numbers on each part of the bill. If one sticks, the two serial numbers will not be identical. > Inverted or back-sided serial numbers. Serial numbers are printed as part of a separate pass through a press. If the paper is accidentally fed upside down or backwards the numbers will not appear in the usual places. Both of these errors can be worth over $100.
