I HAVE A NEW TWENTY DOLLAR BILL THAT HAS A STAR ON THE END OF EACH SERIAL NUMBER. I DO NOT SEE THIS ON ANY OTHER BILL THAT I HAVE. CAN YOU TELL ME ANYTHING ABOUT THE STAR?

Hi..well the star note means that it is a replacement note.When currency is printed sometimes there are errors in the printing process.Instead of reprinting these notes over they are replaced with a separate run of star notes.They are also used to replace notes that have all eight zeros in the serial numbers.These all zeros notes are note distributed.

I have a 20 dollar bill from 1963A and a 2004 20 dollar bill both have a star on them. Are they worth anything?

The odds of finding a replacement note are 1 in 100,000 they are not necessarly worth more, but if you find one with repetitive numbers like 000000 they may be collectors items.
