i am a newbie when it comes to the paper side of things. i picked this from a teller who had a lot of new ones from the 80's and 70's, and in hindsight I should of asked to see them, not just read off the dates... anyway, this one was the oldest, and thought,1950, that should be worth something... ? the more I look at it, I see a small tear on the bottom left...my thoughts are to toss it back   |

I agree with the others...catch & release.
I've read (different forum) that many banks in Europe no longer accept small portrait $100's....have yet to verify.

Right. The 1950-D notes were not printed until 1963-1965, and are readily available even today in new condition for quite reasonable prices.   |

that makes sense.
I would guess that the 1934 series and earlier will fetch a premium regardless of condition, being that its normal circulated?

Sorry, often not the case for many series and districts in mid-VF or lower grades. As noted, most collectors of hundreds prefer notes in the best condition - there is not a lot of demand for the lesser ones, especially from common districts, stars and other scarcities excepted of course. Remember that the 1934 series notes were still in print after WWII, which in paper money terms is not that long ago. |
