Just a dollar. Radar, ladder and single number serial numbers carry the best premium values.

The BEP offers a Lucky 777 note with colorful folder for under $6.00. It includes an uncirculated note with a serial number that starts with 777. I don't know the exact odds of getting 3 consecutive numbers on an 8 digit serial number, but I know that it's not that unusual or rare. If you like it, keep it...it's only a dollar.

The odds of getting 3 consecutive of a specific digit (e.g. 7) in a specific place (e.g. the end) are 1 in 1000, or 0.1%, which is 10 times as likely as a 8-digit radar.

The odds of getting 777 at *any* place in the number are a bit over 0.55%, or roughly 1 in 181 (including the bills with four or more 7s in a row; otherwise it's about 0.51%, or 1 in 197). Obviously the odds of getting *any* three identical digits in a row at any place are higher yet.

Thanks for the input everyone, will probably just spend it. Seen the 3 7's and thought of lucky 7 serial numbers. Paper currency isn't my most knowledgeable subject haha
