I came across a dollar bill that is missing only the left set of serial numbers, and nothing else. It has the right side, and the federal reverse green stamp as well. I tried to research what it might be worth, but I can't really get a clue. I would upload a picture but I can't find my camera, the dollar bill is literally identical to any other bill except missing that one set of numbers. It is in circulated condition.
Any help would be fantastic

 Keep it. Do not spend it. Also post pictures when you find your camera. You'll get better responses with pictures. |

There are no decimal points in there.
When I brought the note to the specialist, he said it was an error he had never seen before, and "one-of" errors are basically non-existent because the mint doesn't print dollars that way. He thought it would be worth around 7-8 thousand and offered me the above price.

The area where the left serial number would be has a bunch of repeated pixel blocks

Here is one I sold for $105,500.07 You can clearly see Jefferson was caught picking his nose during the painting of his portrait.  |
