A "Star note" is a bank note that is reprinted due to a problem with the printing process and the original note being spoiled and not subsequently issued for circulation.

A "Star note" is identified by the last digit of the serial number being a "star", hence the name.

Many countries use the concept of a "Star note" to replace mishaps of the bank note printing process.

The practice of "Star notes" ceased in Australia in about 1971.

Star notes are very collectible as are the notes they are intended to replace, should one mysteriously find its way out of the note printing works.
