What is the value of a 1934 A five dollar bill silver certificate note with a yellow seal?
Current (08/2008) values range from $20 in worn condition to $60 if nearly new.
During WW2 the U.S. printed 1934-dated bills with special seal colors designating what combat area they could be used in. Bills intended for military use in North Africa had yellow seals. Bills for Hawaii had brown seals.
The idea was that they would be valid as ordinary currency for use by soldiers, companies, etc., but if the area was captured by the Nazis or Japanese the overprinted bills could be quickly declared worthless. That would prevent the enemy from using captured U.S. money to buy supplies or in espionage.

What is wrong with the 5 dollar silver certificate of 1899?
The Native American shown on the bill is Running Antelope, a famous leader, warrior, orator, and eventually a diplomat. The bill is very controversial because the designer took it upon himself to depict Running Antelope wearing a Pawnee headdress, claiming that it fit better on the bill than the correct portrait with a Sioux headdress.
Running Antelope was an important tribal chief within the Sioux Nation, and his portrait is one of the few on American currency that depict a historical figure rather than a composite (e.g. the Indian Head nickel), an allegorical figure (Indian Princess gold pieces), or a stylized interpretation (Sacajawea dollars).

Nothing in particular, except that it's an example of a United States Note, a form of currency that was introduced in 1862 and discontinued in the late 1960s.
US Notes were issued directly by the Federal Government instead of through the Federal Reserve System (the central bank). They were completely interchangeable with Federal Reserve Notes, so production was consolidated to save printing costs. All US paper currency is now issued by the Federal Reserve.
