I don't know much about bills, but I got a 5$ serial 87888988 in change today. I think 8 is considered lucky in some areas, do you think it may be worth anything more than face?
Everyone is beautiful on the inside....If you think guts and bones are beautiful

Yes it's worth a premium. In the Japanese culture "8" is a lucky number. Try selling it on E-bay.

If you don't have any luck on ebay I know someone who would be interested in it if you were planning on spending it.

I don't collect currency per se, but I always look for interesting serials. Asked my wife to go through her purse yesterday and she pulled out a $5 that starts with 5 consecutive 8's. Not in the greatest shape but I put it aside for now.
