What is the value of a 1928 US 2 dollar bill with a D mint mark?

To explain the letters on bills, "D" isn't a mint mark. The US Mint only makes coins; all 1928 bills were printed by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing in Washington.

A small "D" below the date indicates that the bill was printed as part of the 5th set of 1928-series bills, which in this case refers to the administration of Secretary of the Treasury Henry Morgenthau, Jr. and US Treasurer W. A. Julian.

What is the highest value of a US silver certificate?

It's not entirely clear what the question is asking.

If you're referring to the highest denomination, that would be $1000. These bills were issued at various times from 1878 to 1891.

If you're referring to the highest collector value, several dates and denominations (1878 and 1880 $500, and all $1000 silver certificates) are considered to be extremely rare but don't have specific collector prices because they haven't come up for sale or auction in many years.

Is there a US 2 dollar bill?

Yes, there's a legal 2 dollar bill, but it's not seen very often. I remember being paid in $2 dollar bills once, when the Navy was trying to show the local town how much we swabbies spent on liberty.

More Modern $2 bills are uncommon, but not rare. They only make up about 1% of all bills in circulation but that's still hundreds of millions of bills. There have been printings in the 2003, 2009, and 2013 series

Anything that you find in change today dated 1976 or later has no extra value.

What does the red seal mean on a US 5 dollar bill?

In 1928 the Treasury adopted standard colors to distinguish the four types of bills that were then in circulation. A red seal and serial numbers identify a bill as a United States Note, a banknote issued directly by the Federal government instead of through a bank.

US Notes were printed for for about a century and in several denominations, but were eliminated in the 1960s in favor of issuing all currency as Federal Reserve Notes.

How many 10000 bills are in circulation?

At this time, effectively none.

Only small numbers of $5000 and $10,000 bills had been printed before large-denomination bills were discontinued in 1945. Almost none were in general circulation; at that time $10,000 could be a year's income for a very wealthy person so they tended to be used by people who were extremely rich ... and often shady. For example, the gambling mogul and criminal Benny Binion amassed a collection $10,000 bills at his Las Vegas casino.

After distribution of high-value bills was halted in 1969, most of the $5000 and $10,000 bills that were in private hands stayed there and/or eventually ended up in museums.

What is a 1957 one dollar bill silver certificate worth?

Silver Certificates were abolished by Congress on June 4, 1963 and all redemption in silver ceased on June 24, 1968. Paper currency is still valid legal tender without the Silver Certificate, instead being backed simply by the strength of the U.S. economy. According to the U.S. treasury, "The notes have no value for themselves, but for what they will buy. In another sense, because they are legal tender, Federal Reserve notes are 'backed' by all the goods and services in the economy. The short answer is that they are worth $1.

What US bills over 100 dollars are still in circulation?

Essentially none. $500, $1000, $5000 and even $10,000 dollar bills are technically still legal tender but nearly all are in the hands of collectors. They haven't been printed since 1945 and are worth more as a historical artifacts so you are very unlikely to come across them in stores.

Is the five dollar bill worth more than five dollars?

Not yet. If it contains any errors, it would/will be.

More...There is an internet rumor / urban legend that the new purple and gray $5 bills have the "wrong date" because they show Series 2006 even though they were printed in 2008. But the date IS correct because a "series date" doesn't indicate the year a bill was printed - in modern usage, it's based on the year when the serving Treasury Secretary took office.

Because Henry Paulson was Secretary of the Treasury from 2006 to January 2009, all bills printed during his tenure (and even some printed afterward as part of a given run), both the new bills and the old green and black ones, have the same series date.
