I recently acquired these 2 notes with the same series and serial numbers (acquired about 2 months apart). I've searched the internet for their value with no luck. Hopefully those with more knowledge in this area than myself can help. -The upper note was issued directly from our local bank with several other sequential notes. I would grade it a CU note. -The lower note was purchased through an online auction. I would grade it a AU note.

Probably worth more as a pair than individuals. Even at that I doubt the pair would get any more than $100 unless they both graded GEM CU.

 guyz! But can anyone tell me it's approximate value? Heck, I'm not even sure that I'm calling it by it's proper name.

Quote: I'm not even sure that I'm calling it by it's proper name. When the notes are viewed individually, they're in the "Almost" category which is a close cousin of the "Interesting " category. When the notes are viewed together, they're in the " Matching Serial Number " category. I'll withhold my opinion about the use of the term binary serial number.

Personally, I wouldn't value them at more than $30-40 each.

Further, the binary question is an endless argument with no answer that is satisfactory to all. Webster's first two definitions for binary: 1) (General) - Something made up of two things or parts. 2) (Mathematics) - Numbering system based only on the numerals 0 and 1. Last word on the subject!

I won't say anything about "binary"  but to me this is a case of the product is more than the sum of its parts. How much more...well... dunno. The serials are pretty cool, no doubt, and together I think they are a very attractive pair. Maybe list the pair for $100 or $120 and see if you get any bites. That's a wild-ass guess for sure.

Do you think that I should have these 2 notes professionally graded?

Definitely not. They have some added value as a binary pair, but not even close to a level that would justify the grading fees.
