The $2 Star is UNC. Any idea on values for these?

Gotta love the "small heads"...too bad about the hard creases on the $50.
I would have grabbed them too!

Hi gill,
No way to guess value without knowing the series and I can't read the tiny print in the photos.
I'm keeping the small portraits I find...for now.

Quote: $2 - Series 1979
typo? The others are old enough to be worth something. I looked up the fifties here http://oldcurrencyvalues.com/oldcur...yvalues.html. There it says that there is no premium value. I think I would disagree with that -- but perhaps it isn't a significant premium.

Yeah sorry I meant 1976 and yeah I figured they are worth 7-12 dollars over face

The $2 star may be worth a small premium over face, the others, doubtful.

There were 1.2 Million FRB C $2 star notes printed for that series. See http://www.uspapermoney.info/serials/f1976_b.html. Still, I'd keep it. Are you hoping to sell them or are you just looking to make notes regarding their worth? I've started doing that just to save my niece from having a huge headache someday. On items like yours I would note: possible small premium -- because the dollar amount will, of course, change. She would then have the choice to try to sell them knowing she should not expect much or release them into the wild.

Nice finds! I'm really liking that LGS $50 and what makes it better is you got it for face.

Hey Buddy,
I'm not looking to sell them, maybe my kids or grandkids when that time comes (I'm only in my 20's so that's a while still lol. Once I have kids I will eventually pass them on and make note for them as you stated, save them from having a huge headache

They don't have a huge premium but they can get a good rake on ebay. You would have to decide for yourself if it is worth it after all the fees and all.

Nice notes!
Do you just ask your teller, "hey, do you have any old currency in your drawer?" I do that with half dollars & dollar coins but usually my bank is so busy that I wouldn't want to ask a teller to riffle through all their notes to find me the gems.

$202 value? I am surprised you got them from a bank. I always ask for the small pictures, but they only ever have Monopoly money.

Celtic, yeah I've been with the same bank for 20+ years now so they know me really well and they just put the notes aside for me

A lot has to do whether the 1934 notes are "mules" and what is the general condition of each note. Generally, the more common the district and the lower the grade equals a lower value.
Individual pictures of the front and back of each of the 1934 notes would help.
The 76 $2 star from Philadelphia is one of the more common stars and retails 15 $ and up in "unc".
