The Treasury Department's Bureau of Engraving and Printing, Western Currency Facility in Fort Worth, Texas, proudly presents the "Lone Star Note." A unique $1 star note, made in Texas, by Texans, for Texans or for those who wish they were Texans!
In Texas Longhorn tradition, "FW" is "branded" on the face in the lower right corner of the note, to signify the note was printed in Fort Worth. A note with the prefix letter "K" at the beginning of the serial number indicates the bank designation letter for the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas. At the end of the serial number, rather than the usual alphabetical suffix, there is a star "*." Hence, the note is called the "Lone Star Note." Star notes replace notes from regular production for variety of reasons such as research, testing, or because of damage during production.
