US Banknotes

Depending on the year, a great amount surely. You should do your homework before attempting to sell this dollar bill, you will no doubt be ripped off otherwise. Some errors I've seen are going for between $200 - $6000 depending on the year of course and condition.

It depends on when the money was made. Modern U.S. coins and bills are basically just worth face value. Many older coins and bills however are worth more because they contain a precious metal such as gold or silver, and/or are in demand by collectors.

There are numerous guidebooks available on-line and in libraries that can help determine a piece's collector value - Coin Prices magazine, Banknote Reporter, and so on are good print sources.

However, as with any collectible you have to know what you are looking at, so if you have older coins are bills you need to do some research on things such as mint marks (for coins), series dates (for bills), and condition grading.

Usually there is extra value if it is from the U.S., but not always. The best way to find out how much is to go to book store or library and find an up to date book on paper money, and in the front of the book there will be a list of print errors and the years.

The value of a 1918 series one dollar bill from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York can vary depending on its condition and rarity. It could be worth anywhere from a few dollars to several hundred dollars to a collector. It is recommended to have the bill evaluated by a currency expert or appraiser for an accurate assessment.

A 1934 $100 bill from the New York Federal Reserve features a portrait of Benjamin Franklin on the front and an image of Independence Hall on the back. The bill is predominantly green in color and has intricate designs such as scrolls and geometric patterns. It also includes the signatures of the Treasurer of the United States and the Secretary of the Treasury.

Fort Worth is the only place, besides Washington DC, where U.S. currency is printed.

Bills printed in Fort Worth can be identified by a tiny "FW" next to the plate indicator (a letter and number) that appears in one corner of the bill's front.

The value of a misprinted 1988 US $1 bill can vary greatly depending on the nature of the misprint and its rarity. Some misprints can be quite valuable to collectors, while others may only hold sentimental value. It would be best to have the bill evaluated by a currency expert or collector to determine its specific value.

Currency paper is composed of 25% linen and 75% cotton. Red and blue synthetic fibers of various lengths are distributed evenly throughout the paper. Prior to World War I the fibers were made of silk.

Misprinted currency with errors can sometimes fetch a premium from collectors depending on the severity of the mistake. However, without knowing the specific nature of the misprint, it is difficult to determine an exact value. It is recommended to consult with a currency expert or appraiser for an accurate assessment.

All United States currency with a star and end of serial number is a replacement note for notes of that serial number that have been voided by the Printing Office, mutilated or otherwise damaged by US Government entities.

You'd need to have your bill inspected in person. Seals can be missing because one phase of the printing process was accidentally missed, or they can be printed on the other side of the note (sometimes harder to see) because the paper sheet on which the bill was printed was improperly fed through the press.

Depending on the nature of the error your bill might retail anywhere from $100 to $500.

If ink has run on a dollar bill, it may no longer be accepted as legal tender. It is advisable to exchange it for a new bill at a bank or financial institution. Alternatively, you can try to clean the bill gently without causing further damage.

Please note that this site has a Coins and Currency thread that is more appropriate to questions about, uh, coins and currency. A question about coins is really not related to Languages.

Since 1928, all US currency bills are the same size (the size they are now). Some were once a little larger, 3 1/8" by 7 3/8", or 7.9 cm by 18.7 cm -- they are called "horse blanket" notes. Anything other than those two sizes is a "reproduction" (copy, fake) made smaller because copies are not allowed to be the same size as real currency. There are some miniature one-dollar bills that were printed in 1988 for a market promotion. Those bills and any like them are essentially worthless except as collectible novelties.

The amount actually spent throughout the world is difficult to calculate. What isn't difficult is the amount of currency in circulation: $700 billion as of April 2004. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_dollar

A bicentennial $2 bill with first day print in excellent condition could be worth around $15 to $20 to a collector. The exact value would depend on factors such as demand, rarity, and any unique characteristics of the bill.

A local banking representative would be able to relay such info to you - the decision to maintain a specific $20 bill in circulation is based on its condition (Is there writing all over? Is it half torn?, etc). If you have a damaged bill, you can exchange it at a bank as long as you have more than half of the bill. As bills come into a bank, they decide which ones are too worn and limp to continue circulating and return them to the Federal Reserve Bank where they are destroyed. The FRB replaces them with new bills.

I leave mine in my pocket and run it through the wash! Then lay out flat to dry. If the bills are in very bad shape, you should be able to exchange them at any bank. The bill will eventually be destroyed, replaced by a new bill. You don't wash the money

Blue seals indicate that the note is a Silver Certificate. Before silver was withdrawn from circulation, silver certificates were backed 1-for-1 with the same worth of silver metal in the Treasury. They could be exchanged at banks for silver, although few people actually did so by the mid-20th century.

Red seals indicate a special series of currency called United States Notes.

Neither one of these series is still issued. All modern currency is issued as Federal Reserve Notes.

Gold certificates with gold seals were issued until 1928, and they were redeemable for their price in gold.

You can find reliable information on old paper and coin money, as well as silver or red certificates, from reputable numismatic websites, books, and forums dedicated to currency collecting. Additionally, established coin dealers, auction houses specializing in paper currency, and historical archives may also provide accurate and valuable information on these topics.

The value of a choice crisp uncirculated star note can vary depending on factors such as the rarity of the specific note, its condition, and current market demand. In general, star notes are typically valued higher than regular notes due to their limited production and collector appeal. It is recommended to consult with a currency specialist or reference pricing guides for an accurate valuation.
