Scan any US bill. Find out in two seconds whether it's worth more than face value. Point your camera at the serial number. RareBill reads it on-device and tells you straight away whether you're holding a star note or a fancy serial. Your first 20 bills are free. WHAT MAKES A BILL SPECIAL STAR NOTES - replacement notes printed to replace damaged ones, marked with a star at the end of the serial. Roughly one bill in a hundred.

Check your own money, decide whether it works for you, and only then decide whether to pay. ONE PAYMENT, NO SUBSCRIPTION $4.99, once. Not a year, not a week — once. Every other app in this corner of the store bills you again next year. BUILT ON OFFICIAL DATA Print-run figures come from the BEP's own monthly production reports, 2002 to today, plus the published collector record back to 1935. Every serial range shipped in the app was cross-checked against the quantities printed alongside it — if the arithmetic didn't agree, the row didn't ship. RareBill also tells you what the lookup sites don't: small print runs are released in consecutive packs, so a low run number is not the same as a scarce note. Values are estimates from published price guides, not appraisals. RareBill is a reference tool for collectors: it makes no claim about whether a note is genuine, and it does not check your note for printing errors — the guide explains what to look for and leaves the judgement to you. Your camera never leaves your phone. Nothing is uploaded, nothing is stored.
