    However, you can buy full sheets of currency (edit: from the bureau of printing and engraving) that are for novelty purposes and the way they get around it is all of the serial numbers are the same. So they do actually print full sheets where all the serial numbers are the same. The only reason I know that is my grandfather had one. Supposedly the reason was if you happen to cut it yourself you “could only use one of them”.

      The numbers are different but in obvious reserved ranges so people can’t cut them apart and sell them as a premium as a cutting error.

      I have such a sheet on my wall.
