If I send it to the BEP for redemption it would cost 68 cents in postage so it might only be worth 32 cents. I am willing to bet a cup of coffee and a dozen donuts that my bank would not accept it for deposit. What do you all think it's worth? Do you think anyone would buy it?  |

No collector value in this condition would be my guess.

Tape it back together the best you can using the reverse side for the taping points. Then frame it and display it. Great conversation piece.
Beats redeeming it for a dollar in my opinion.

It looks as if the note "broke" apart.
Is the note that brittle ?

You can deposit a note provided you have at least 51% of it. For the sake of arguement, let's pretend it is a modern $1 bill. A bank would accept the piece on the right by itself. A bank would not accept either of the two pieces on the left by themselves.
Personally, I would tape it together, and tuck it away in a scrapbook.

Take it to the bank, video the teller's reaction, and get back to us.  |

I'll give you 50 cents for it if the shipping is free...  |

I paid $1200.00 for it. Fortunately, there was also about a half ounce of gold, a bunch of silver (mostly Barbers), buffalo and V nickels, old pennies, and modern clad and modern twos included with it. Also, included was another 1917 1$ USN that was not quite in such bad shape. I'll probably keep that one for a while. Edited by Ynnad

I traded the 1917 USN pictured in the first post for a sleeve to put my other 1917 USN in. Do you think this was a fair trade? Now, how do I get the wrinkles/fold marks out?  Edited by Ynnad

Believe me, just leave it as it is! Anything you do to "improve" it will only lessen its value.
