It depends.

Does it say "exchangeable in gold" on it?

Its odd because before 1933 gold was the basis of the economy, but now you can't just go in and trade a dollar for gold. This means that the value of our dollar is now regulated by how much of it is in circulation. So, if some dollar bills get recalled by the U.S. mint, the value of our dollar goes up (I think) because there is not as much of it.

Just keep it as a souvenir, though I doubt that anyone in the world even has this bill.

CorrectionsPlease check your coin or bill again and post a new, separate question. A check of any number of sources will show that:

(1) The US never issued either $1 coins or $1 bills in 1933 due to the Great Depression.

(2) The US never issued a $1 gold certificate. The lowest value was $5 in the 1870s.

(3) The Mint strikes coins, not bills.

(4) Neither the Treasury nor the Mint ever recalled any money except for Gold Certificates and gold coins.
