Default name for this note?

I have found a $1 FRN with the serial #
B 86677866 B
Is there a special name you guys call this, or is it just an "unusual #"
note?
Thanks for any help.

I have found a $1 FRN with the serial # B 86677866 B ... Is there a special

name you guys call this, or is it just an "unusual #" note?

When it comes to "fancy" or "curious" serial numbers, there are a wide variety
of names to describe the 'pattern'; some more recognized than others (ie radar
notes versus poker bills)

Your note falls into two different catagories, as I know them. The first is an
"anagramed" serial number, whereas the last four digits is an 'anagram' of the
first four. The second is what I call a "bookends" serial number, where the
first three are the same as the last three.

Too, it takes a double-look to know that it's not a radar note, and that makes
it uniquely a 'curiosity' number, wouldn't you say??
