What is a Binary Serial Number?

A binary serial number is a type of fancy serial number that contains only two unique digits. Your serial number, D79997797A, contains only the digits 7 and 9, a classic example of a binary serial number that collectors actively seek out.

While true binary serial numbers containing only 1s and 0s are rarer and more valuable, any serial number with only two unique digits is considered a binary. Binary serial number bills command a premium above face value, especially when found in uncirculated condition.

Federal Reserve District Designation

The D prefix in the serial number indicates this note was issued by the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland, Ohio, designated as District 4.
