Yellow-seal $1 bills were issued during WWII for use by troops in North Africa. The words NORTH Africa should be printed on the back and the bill's date should be 1935-A. The special color was used so that the bills could quickly be declared worthless if they fell into enemy hands.
As of 12/2011 approximate prices are:
Circulated: $10 to $20 depending on the bill's condition
Uncirculated: $200
Serial Numbers
A bill's serial number is a counter and a security feature. In most cases it doesn't affect a bill's value or help to identify it. Some collectors specialize in bills with low serial numbers (e.g. 00000005) or unusual patterns (12344321) so these can bring above-average prices.
DISCLAIMER: The values quoted are market averages as of the date shown, but may be different for an individual bill due to variations in quality and other factors. Also the wholesale (buying) price of a bill will be less than the selling (retail) price. A reputable currency dealer will be able to give a more accurate valuation based on an in-person inspection.
