"Barr notes" are assumed to be more valuable than others because Joseph Barr only served as Treasury Secretary for about a month at the end of the Johnson Administration. However nearly half a billion bills with his signature were printed so they only command a slight premium over others from the same era. As of 02/2009 U.S. Currency Auctions lists a fair market value of an uncirculated Barr note at only $2.00. Many sellers on eBay are under the mistaken impression that these bills are rare - or are trying to play off others' lack of knowledge - and are attempting to charge highly inflated prices.

What is the value of a one dollar bill signed by one of Apollo 8 astronaut?

The value depends, of course, on which astronaut signed it. The most valuable signature would be Bill Anders followed by Jim Lovell and then Frank Borman. The condition of the note would also affect the value.


Who is the secretary of state that signed the fewest dollar bills?

It is a tie between all of them. The Secretary of State does not sign money. That is done by the Secretary of the Treasury. All dollar bills are also signed by the Treasurer. And no, they aren't the same person. But, if your question is which Secretary of the Treasury signed the fewest bills I'd probably go with the shortest tenured sectreas and that would be Joseph Barr. He was only sectreas for a year and his signature is only on 1.00 dollar bills. 458 million of them. Perhaps Hamilton or another person signed fewer.

1892 It is more like 1899 or 1900. In 1892 it cost $1.08 to buy what $1 would buy in 1900. It is too bad that the dollar does not increase in value any more.
