US Banknotes

If the $5 note has a common blue seal it could go from $25.00 in very poor condition-tears,missing corners,much soiling,writing on bill... up to about $250.00 + if in brand new condition. If it is a red seal note it could go up to $750.00 + in new condition.

I was at the bank today in Luzerne, PA & John Lohman who works there is actively searching for a note from the bank if you want to sell it. Just do a search for the banks phone number on the internet.

The last US $500 bills were in the 1934 series. Distribution was suspended in 1969.

You did not give a date for your bill so I have to guess. There are 2 possibilities:

The only $2 bill to ever have a series letter F was dated 1928 and has a red seal. Depending on its condition this bill is worth anywhere from $4 to $15.

If you have a new bill with a green seal, the "F" is not a series letter. It's the Federal Reserve District letter indicator. All green seal $2 bills are current issues and are only worth $2 in circulated condition, $3 if uncirculated.

Neither the US nor Canada printed $2 bills dated 1970. Please post a new, separate question with the bill's country of origin, and any other information that might help ID the bill. However you don't need to copy its serial number.

You can't, because you have a replica bill. They were used to transfer large amounts of money in the days before electronic transfers were possible.

There were 48,000 printed and 42 are still in exsistence. but every one is accounted for. There is a sheet of 12 uncut on display, 2 in a casino, 1 in the smithsonian and i personally dont know where the rest are but the gov does. but yes you have a replica

That motto was not put on paper money until the 1950s so your bill is not an error.

There are two types of 1934-A $10 bill. If you have one with a blue seal, it's worth $13-$30 depending on how worn it is. If it has a green seal, the range is $12-$20.

The ink color is actually red, not orange, which indicates that it's a United States Note, a form of currency that was issued from 1862 to 1966. They served the same purpose as Federal Reserve Notes, so the Treasury opted to consolidate all paper money under the Federal Reserve as a cost-saving move.

There's more information at the Related Question.

The US didn't print any $1 bills dated 1998. Please check your bill and post a new question.

The U.S. didn't print any $2 bills dated 1957.

The last $2 silver certificate was printed in the 1890s. All $2 bills after than were either U.S. Notes, National Currency Notes, or Federal Reserve Notes.

so that if the dollar ceases to exist, then silver would be worth more; it's also a good investment.

1928-series $100 bills weren't issued as silver certificates, only gold certificates and Federal Reserve Notes. Please look at the bill's front to determine which you have; then check one of the following:

"What is the value of a 1928 US 100 dollar Federal Reserve Note?"

"What is the value of a 1928 US 100 dollar gold certificate?"

The U.S. didn't print any $100 silver certificates with that date.

If you're referring to coins, the familiar Lincoln cent was the first US circulating coin to carry a man's portrait.

If you're referring to paper money it's very difficult to specifically state whose portrait was first because there was no single, common form of US paper currency until the 20th century.

From the 18th to the mid-19th century most Federally-issued money was in the form of coins. Bills were printed by many different sources. For example the Continental Congress printed money called "Continentals". Individual colonies and states also printed bills. Later on even local banks printed their own currency.

The first federally-issued paper money that's a direct predecessor to today's bills was printed during the Civil War, so these could reasonably be chosen as the first federal bills to depict an historic American man. (At that time there were no prohibitions against showing a living person, which accounts for portraits of Lincoln, Chase, etc.)

1861 $5 demand note: former Treasury Secretary Alexander Hamilton

1861 $10 demand note: current president Abraham Lincoln

1862 $1 United States note: current Treasury Secretary Salmon P. Chase

1862 $2 United States note: former Treasury Secretary Alexander Hamilton

There is no "series D silver dollar" (a coin) so I assume you're referring to a silver certificate. See the Related Question for more information.

Depending on the nature of the error, it could be worth $200 to $500 at retail.

Missing serial numbers can occur if the bill wasn't fed through the part of the printing process that adds the seal and serial numbers, or if it was fed in upside down and the seal and serial numbers were printed on the back.

In any case it should be seen by a dealer or appraiser who specializes in error currency.

Please post a new question with the bill's date, what letter if any is next to the date, and the color of the seal and other non-ornamental lettering. All of that information is needed to ID a bill.

You can find a range of prices at a site such as the one linked below.

The banner across the top of your bill identifies it as a United States Note. These bills were printed with red ink to distinguish them from silver certificates (blue) and Federal Reserve Notes (green). US Notes were issued directly by the federal government rather than through the Federal Reserve System. The two kinds of currency served the same purpose so production of US Notes was suspended in the late 1960s to save on printing and distribution costs.

For obvious reasons the Bureau of Engraving and Printing doesn't give out many details on the inks used to print US currency. The inks are very high quality oil-based products, but beyond that there isn't much public information available because of concerns about counterfeiting.

Federal Reserve Notes are printed by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing at facilities in Washington and Fort Worth.

Bills are distributed through the Federal Reserve banks in Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Richmond, Atlanta, St. Louis, Cleveland, Chicago, Kansas City, Dallas, Minneapolis, and San Francisco.

According the US Treasury web-site:

All denominations of paper currency notes printed since 1929 are the same size, measuring approximately 2.61 inches (6.63 centimeters) by 6.14 inches (15.60 centimeters). Each note weighs about one gram.
