Good morning gang, I got this bill as change this morning. I'm pretty sure I know the answer but I'm still pretty new and would appreciate more knowledgeable opinions. Would this bill be considered a fancy or "somewhat fancy" serial, or more of a "66 numbers away is interesting, but ultimately just another serial number."

This would not be considered fancy, but it only costs a buck to keep it.

I don't know nothing about currency collecting yet but I'd keep it for poker and double my dollar LOL. All joking aside it's a nice note.

Fun find! It might not be worth more than a dollar, but I would keep it.

5 of a kind in a row occurs 1 in 2,883 bills, not too common but definitely findable. The standard for 'fancy' seems to be at least 1/~10,000 like radars or repeaters. Personally I'm deeply jealous...I've accumulated this group over the eons, been looking for years for consecutive 9's to complete my set and I saw two in the last few weeks here lol. Five consecutive 9's specifically occur 1 in 38,095.
