Absolutely a keeper! Not only is it hard to find an old bill like that but to find one with a serial number like that, you cant go wrong. Noooo doubt about it.

Condition is unfortunate, but I like it for a dollar. I would be saddened to spend that. Where did you find this?

Given that you post this topic, I assume that you would only keep it for collection value. In that perspective I'd spend it.

Its like that with coins as well which is why I hate to see them get cleaned mishandled or lost!

The bill with the asterisk is a replacement note with a print of 640,000 so it might be worth hanging onto.

keep the asterisk/replacement...

The others aren't quite a solid or low enough to be considered a "low"

For $3 keeping them for conversational pieces I would say is fine.....

I'm afraid that if you put 'em up on ebay it may cost you more in fees than what they're worth.

You can see the *FA has a slight premium over the regular bill

KEEP IT!

It's a bill that isn't in circulation anymore & getting harder each year to come by.
