Is my note one of these?
Check the serial number on your bill against the ranges above — the district letter is the last letter of the prefix. Or paste it into the free lookup, which does the matching for you and also reports any fancy-serial pattern.
Figures come from the Bureau of Engraving and Printing's monthly production reports where available, and a collector compilation for older series. A run appearing here is a record of what was printed, not of what survives — circulated notes are lost, destroyed and worn out over time.
