Those who read my posts on the Forum will know that I work as a tour guide, and I sometimes get American banknotes given to me as tips at the end of a tour. I always check them for things like radars and ladders, even though in the UK we pay little attention to such things. I wouldn't want something worth saving to go into my normal pile of spending money for my next trip to the USA! Anyway this afternoon I was sorting through my tips and found this!   I'd grade it as EF - it's circulated, with some vertical creases, but it's still fairly crisp with no tears or markings. Do people collect bills like this even if they are quite recent and not uncirculated? What would a bill like this be worth? Thanks! |

That is a great note to get! Even in circulated it has value. Based on price checks, you are looking at $500+ in value. Only 1 out of every 11 million is a solid.
Edit: I reached out to a dealer to see what he would pay for it. I'll let you know.

Super nice circulation find. Solid serial numbers are hot right now. Collectors paying top dollar like seeing them in PMG or PCGS holders. Just about everything I've seen start at $700 (XF AU) and go as high as $3K-$4K (66EPQ-68EPQ)
