US Banknotes

The value of a 1996 $100 bill with a star symbol in the serial number AK 01137717 would depend on its condition and rarity. Generally, star notes are more collectible and can be worth more than their face value, especially if they are in uncirculated condition or have unique characteristics. It would be best to have it evaluated by a currency expert to determine its exact value.

MDCCLXXVI, which is of course the Roman numeral for 1776.

The Latin phrase "Annuit Cœptis Novus Ordo Seclorum" around the pyramid means "Announcing the Birth of a New World Order".

1964 was the last year they printed silver certificates, although they were dated 1957 B. Until 1968 it was possible to exchange your silver certificate for its face value in silver dollars or the equivalent in silver bullion/coins. However, since 1968 they have become fiat money and somewhat of a collector's item. They are no longer convertible for silver and can be found rarely in change.

A US dollar is 155.96 millimetres by 66.29 millimetres.

Please check your bill again and post a new, separate question. There are no 1920-series US $20 bills.

A 1953A US Silver Certificate is worth worth $8-$10 in circulated condition. If it is uncirculated it is worth $18 or more depending on the uncirculated condition.

The "A" designation was only used on 1928 Federal Reserve Notes. Despite its age, as of 10/2011 it's only worth $125 to $180 in circulated condition. A nice uncirculated specimen can sell for $225 to $250, however.

because they felt like it

Solution: dampen it, then use a dry flat iron set on low.

Or dampen it and put it between the pages of books, or under bricks. But don't wash or soak it, or the ink may run and the bill will fade.

To reduce counterfeiting, the same reason that all other US denominations except $1 and $2 bills have been redesigned twice in the last 2 decades.

Redesign is particularly important for $100 bills because they're used as a de facto world currency, and because they're often used by criminals and terrorists to hide transactions because their relatively high value allows large transactions to be hidden more easily.

The value of a 1934 blue seal five-dollar bill, also known as a silver certificate, varies based on its condition and rarity. In general, these bills can range from about $5 to $30 in circulated condition, while uncirculated specimens can fetch higher prices, sometimes exceeding $100. Factors such as serial number and unique printing variations can also influence the bill's value. For an accurate appraisal, it's recommended to consult a currency collector or a numismatic expert.

i dont really know but it could be worth 3 dollars

Please check again and post a new, separate question. The US didn't print any bills with that date. The blue seal indicates it's a silver certificate; these were dated either 1935 or 1957.

$100.00 USD, less handling charges for exchanging it. Take your paper bill to a coin collector who can assess it's value based on CONDITION of the bill in question. Your question does not seem to indicate whether or nor it may be a "Silver Certificate".

Please check again and post a new, separate question. The first official US $1 silver certificates were printed in 1886.

Very few $10,000 bills were printed so almost all dates bring substantial premiums. As of 11/2011, prices for a 1928 bill are $30,000 to $45,000 in circulated condition, and over $70,000 uncirculated.

It depends on what letter, if any, is next to the date. A 1928 C bill from the Cleveland* Federal Reserve District is quite valuable, with prices for a circulated bill in the $250 to $450 range as of 10/2011. Other letters are much more common; please see the Related Question for more.

(*) To explain, there's no "Federal Reserve of Ohio". It's actually the Fourth Federal Reserve District which has its offices in Cleveland, so it's generally referred to as the Cleveland Federal Reserve District.

No US bill lists all 50 states. You may be thinking of the image of the Lincoln Memorial that's been on on the back of the $5 bill since 1928. The Lincoln Memorial itself has the names of all 48 states that were in the Union at the time the monument was built. Because the bill can only show one face of the building only 26 names are visible.

Please don't assume that every older bill is a certificate. The banner across its top and the green seal indicate it's a Federal Reserve Note. Certificates were redeemable in silver or gold and had different color seals - blue for silver certificates and gold for gold certificates. Both types were discontinued long before 1999.

There's more information at the question "What is the value of a 1999 US 10 dollar bill?"

Potentially valued between $500 - $3500 depending mostly on its condition.

$60 in bad condition. {VG condition} About $80 in circulated condition. {VF condition}

About $160 in uncirculated.

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.
