Because you have a United States Note, also known as a Legal Tender Note. Back before the US withdrew silver from its circulating currency, there were 3 main types of notes that circulated. Federal Reserve Notes, currency that currently circulates today with green serial numbers and seals which were produced by the Federal Reserve. Silver Certificates which were promises by the government that one dollar of silver was within its treasury and if you took it to the government they would pay you a silver dollar (or 10 silver dimes, or 4 silver quarters, or 2 silver half dollars and so on, the government stopped allowing them to be cashed in for silver in the late 1960s however) and the United States Notes which were not backed by silver or gold. Today, United States Notes in decent condition are worth more than their face value to collectors.

What are rare American fifty dollar note serial numbers?
There really aren't any "rare" serial numbers, all serial numbers are only used once on a particular denomination/issuing bank/series. The most in demand are the first notes and the last notes of each series. Also in demand are the ones with all consecutive numbers (such as the serial number being all 4s or 7s), also popular with some collectors are radar notes, notes with serial numbers that are the same backwards and forwards. Overall though, the paper money market is pretty cold right now and it is a lot harder to sell an interesting note, particularly a modern note with an interesting serial number than something like a rare coin.
