Going through my junk drawer first, looking for input on keep/not keep and possible value or information of a few interesting fancy serial numbers.  Edited by datadragon

It's really up to you on this one. The fold in the center keeps any premium to a minimum. I would consider this a spender.  ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!!

The serial number on that bill is not considered "fancy".

Fun find, but not sure if I could afford to keep it.  |

Not a fancy number I'm afraid.

Thanks everyone for the input so far as I'm learning right along with everyone else in certain areas. What I can add is that a solid in which every digit in the number is the same. Examples: 11111111, 88888888 is very sought after with Value: $1,000 - $4,000 or so. Seven of the same digits that are in a row. Example: 77777771 or 7 of a kind Similar to 7-in-a-row except that the lone digit is somewhere in the middle of the number. Example: 77177777 are both also sought after and worth keeping or selling. Value: $50 - $150. However six of a kind has been known to sell also, but I dont personally collect them (6 of a kind or 6 in a row) and keep them in a junk drawer which I'm deciding whether to sell or just spend, although this one is also a trinary (not normally added value by itself) and a coolness factor 98.7%. 88881828 contains a 6-of-a-kind. Only 0.023% of 8-digit numbers have this combination. So I guess I was asking if I should just throw it up on my ebay store if it might bring in $25-$30 with free shipping as after fees, shipping etc any less probably means it would be a spender regardless and certainly no reason to hold onto these except if you personally think its cool for a serial number collector.

Interesting serial number but a spender in my mind. I'd be surprised if it would bring enough of a premium to make it worthwhile to sell on ebay, but you never know. I recall that 8 is considered a very lucky number in China, so there may be a slim chance you could make a few bucks on it with the right buyer... Member of SPMC, FCCB, ANA and ANS.

Heres another from the junk pile from 2006 also with 6 of a kind/trinary (3 digits).  Looking briefly through ebay sold listings it seems the binary (two digit only) six of a kind/in a row sell higher, and the $1 with six of a kind/six in a row is more popular. May also be better for jbuck  https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nk...H_Complete=1Edited by datadragon

Again, not fancy. With respect, do you know what "fancy" means? The term "trinary" is eBay-speak for junk.

Agree completely with Mr.Frog and will add, the Coolness Factor is also rubbish. It gives new collectors false hope. Fools Gold

Jackson was elected president in 1828. But since I'm not a fancy serial number guy, I would still spend it.
