Serial numbers are counters and a security feature but don't readily identify a bill by date or series. Please post a new, separate question with the bill's date, what letter if any is next to the date, and if the bill's date is 1934, what color the seal is. Specific serial numbers rarely affect a common-date bill's value. Some collectors will pay extra for numbers with a special pattern, e.g. 12345678, or low numbers such as 00000015.
