Cool find Jeremy, If you wanted to sell it on ebay just have your parents make an ebay account that you can use with their permission. I to am too young to have my own ebay account because I am 16. I would hold on to the $50 bill, its pretty cool. -PP

I have the "Official Blackbook Price Guide to United States Paper Money" and according to that:

ABP= $60
VF= $100
UNC= $300

It is tough to tell from the pictures but is at least the $60 and depending on the buyer MAY bring in $100.

Dude! That was a bad deal. I think you will look back on this later in life as a learning experience. I had a sweet coin collection when I was a young person like yourself and lost it do to needing the money too. My collection today is still impressive but I sure wish I had those old coins today.

Oh darn, that sounded harsh. I have been there. Everyone has needed money at times in there life and need to sell of items that are valuable at a loss or the break even point. Next time try to hang on to it.

The adjusted inflation value makes a differenance. With the 5 percent inflation, in 12 years from now it will have double the price, though the money willl have a lesser value.

Grace, that was the total profit I made, $60, after all the "fees".

I think you were right to sell the bill. Small sized paper money doesn't usually have a high value unless it's in CU or near CU condition. I kept a 1934 $100 bill about 25 years ago. Today, I could probably get about $125 for that bill. If I'd invested that $100 wisely at even 5% annual return, it would be worth about $250 now.

We all had them days Buffalo. I use to smoke and unfortunately I cashed in alot of halves for smokes (Ben Franklins). .
Boy do I regret it now. I'm just really glad I quit smoking so I dont do anything stupid like that again. Its been about 2 1/2 yrs since I quit and I dont plan on going back to that nasty habit either.
