I received from the bank a $50 note that has a serial # of 00888888 and it's from the 8th district (H8) would this be very collectible ?

Hello, Yes that note only has two numbers in it, don't know the exact term for that, maybe binary, however I believe the commonly known term for a binary note is when it's all 1's and 0's, referring to computer talk of all ones and zeros. I'm probably wrong, I'm new at currency collecting. Eights are considered lucky in Asian culture, especially when referring to finances, as are fours. I would keep it until you find the right buyer, if your trying to make money on it. I would personally keep it in my collection because of the six 8's in a row. But that's just my humble opinion. Notes with only 2 numbers are definitely a keeper no matter what 2 numbers they are.

SteveInTampa will have better input than mine. I'm sure he will give you some solid and more knowledgeable advice, he's a true expert. The condition will be a contributing factor too.

Spender. Too much money to tie up on such a circulated note. Maybe someone will pay a couple bucks over face, but is that really worth the hassle to pack and ship, plus fees if selling online?

I would be hard pressed to keep this note because of its condition. If it was a smaller denomination, yes. I'm sure a bididiot on ebay might give you something above face value.....have you seen some of the junk that gets sold ? Incredible

$50's seem to be hard to sell in my area...especially the "big heads"....and as stated above....condition is key!
