My wife teaches at a parochial high school and also runs the International Student program. Last night the school had an outing at a local Corn Maze and I was asked to help chaperone. All the kids paid in cash, and while I was counting it I came across this:

Binary-Radar---8s-And-0s

Binary-Radar---8s-And-0s

It does have some condition issues. There are a number of creases and a couple of the corners are soft. I don't collect bills and don't know much about them. Does that affect the price much?

I showed it to a couple of the Chinese students who freaked out!! Apparently the number 8 is considered very lucky in China.

This note is also a flipper. The serial number reads the same upside down.

It's a binary and a radar note. Although a true binary would be only 0's and 1's, I consider any note with only two different numbers a binary. I would keep it even with the condition issues knowing I probably wouldn't be getting much for it if I sold it. Nice find!

It's a RADAR and a binary and 8's are lucky in Asia.Does have condition problems but I think if you would put it on the bay starting at .99 you might be surprised.
