I went to the bank this afternoon and purchased a bunch of $2 bills. This evening, while was looking over the bills I noticed that there were a lot from Atlanta Fed in the 2003A series. So I investigated further and found out the I had a few sequentially numbered bills that were not creased and are unmarked, but they are in two groupings.

The first grouping is a group of 3 ranging from F12672698aA to F12672700A. The secound grouping is a group of 5 ranging from F12785966A to F12785970A.

I don't believe that either set is anything special except that I have two different groups.

Is there any special value ($) that would be associated with a grouping of 3 and a grouping of 5? I do believe that it would be in my eventual best interest to keep these two series together and in good shape.

Am I correct in my belief and also on the assumption that there is value in having a grouping of something?

Ghostrider, you are indeed correct in such an assumption. Although there is no fancy serial numbers there, selling the notes grouped together would definitely bring in more than selling them individually. The exact premium on such notes is difficult to calculate.
However, from my buying experience, Usually sellers only have groupings of 2 consecutive serial numbers in pristine condition.
Problem is, your notes are modern and are from a relatively common series. I'd recommend keeping them but 100 packs of original and consecutive 2003 series $2 can easily be bought.

Back in the day I used to sell 10 consecutive 2003A $2s on ebay for $29.99 buy it now. Every other day I would sell a group. This was back before fees got so crazy.

I bought 20 $2 bills from my bank about a year ago and all 20 were consecutive serials. I collect $2s so I had no doubt they were going in my collection. They were absolutely crisp and beautiful from the bank, and still are now.

Hi,
It's a pleasure to read that pairs are more worth.
This are my favorites.

Hello, I do not coolect notes at all and know nothing of them. I just got some money from the bank. 2 $100 notes are in consecutive order. One is numbered BG53020326A an the other BG53020327A. The top left serial number on both have a G7 under their numbers. They are part of the 1999 series. They are in brand new condition. Only difference between 2 is that in the lower right corner of Franklins portrait the 26A has C38 while the 27A has C28. Are these common to find? Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Lol, I get so many uncirculated $2's in consecutive serial #'s, I just spend them as any other bills. I even got a half strap of consecutive serial # 1995's a year or so ago.
