In most cases the serial number doesn't matter to the value of any 20th or 21st-century US bill. Serial numbers are counters and security devices and in general aren't items of collector interest. The major exception is bills that have "special" or unusual serial numbers; these are collectible among groups who look for particular patterns or other combinations. Low serial numbers (e.g. 00000003) are highly prized because they represent the start of a particular print run. Other collectors look for patterns such as 12345678, numbers that look like dates (20101225), or "radar" notes whose serial numbers read the same backwards and forwards like 35799753.
