Some terminologies I like to use when describing the serial numbers of a particular banknote:-
A/1 000001 = First note (rare and highly sought after too)
A/1 000050 = Low serial number
A/1 222222 = Solid number
A/1 123321 = Radar number
A/1 123456 = Ascending order number
A/1 654321 = Descending order number
A/1 000008 = Lucky/golden number
A/1 000088 = Double lucky number
A/1 000888 = Triple lucky number aka half solid
A/1 008888 = Death lucky number
A/1 088888 = Not so lucky number
A/1 888888 = Solid lucky number (what more do you want?)
A/1 000004 = Death number
A/1 100000 = Thousand number/million number
A/1 000000 = No face value number (not specimen type)**
A/1 101010 = Binary number aka repeat number
A/1 100100 = Repeat number (not radar)
A/1 010199 = Birthday number
From the above, I have not used the description "almost solid" numbered
notes. Every serial number is unique but almost or second best is not
one to be proud of. Please feel free to let me know if you can add
further to this. Thanks
Note: **. This is not a specimen note unless it is said so. Serial
numbers of notes are usually printed in reverse order and this is simply
just the last number of the print for that particular prefix. These
sort of notes are normally not issued, but in Australia, the Reserve
Bank sold such notes (in a sheet of 40) to the highest bidder and you
can find such notes for sales in thousands of dollars each in uncirculated condition.
