Fancy serial numbered notes are notes that have five to eight serial numbers arranged in a way that makes them different. The different types of fancy serial numbers include:
Solid Numbers- Notes that have all of the serial numbers the same digit, F88888888A or AB11111111B.
Radars- Notes that have a serial number that reads the same forwards as well as backwards: K0002112000A or Z8778K or J11222211A.
Low Serial Numbers- Numbers that have a very low serial number, usually 3-digit or less: BA00000123A or J00000001* or D2A.
Binary Numbers- Notes that have all ones and zeros: BA11001010A or Z11110000B or D1101A A00000001*
