Value of Sequential bills?

Hi everyone,

I usually don't collect US paper money however I have found two pairs of US $1 bills that have sequential serial numbers. Are these worth holding onto? And if so, how unusual is it to find sequential numbers in your change? Thanks for the help!

It's not unusual to find. In fact, you can pick up new stacks at the bank where the entire bundle is sequential.

 

Thanks, I wasn't sure but then again I don't really pay attention to US bills that much.

 

Before you unload them, post them here in case they are collectible numbers or districts etc..

 

Ok, I'll scan them in here in a few minutes.

 

Here's the bills, since they're only dollars I may just go ahead and hang onto them unless someone else is needing them.

 

They aren't worth anything to most people, but the FA is something that I have been on the lookout for! I've been trying to get my CHCU 2009 $1 'A' block set going and FA is currently one of the blocks that I need to get it finished. I'm going to PM you...

Hey Travis, how has the district set been going? I haven't seen any "A" blocks worth PM'ing you about unfortunately.

 

What exactly is a district set? I've never really looked at US notes before now and now I'm interested, lol.

 

A district set includes all the districts printed for a specific series and denomination. Usually A through L (1-12).

 

Ok cool! Now I have one more reason to go through all my wife's change!

 

For my district set of 2009 $1 notes, I have all of the districts, and most of the star notes. Only the newest District stars are missing from this set. When I do sets, I like to have all of the notes from the districts including stars.

 

So you do a set by year then? As in collecting a $1 bill from every district for 2009? Sorry if these seem dumb, I'm just trying to figure it out because one of the things I love most about this hobby is collecting through my pocket change.

 

No worries about asking questions! That's what the forum is all about. A district set would be one note from each district for the series that is released. In this case, I collected all the $1 notes from the new 2009 series notes. It isn't based on the physical year you collect the notes, but on the series itself.

 

Hello, we have 100 uncurculated 2009 series district b/j's $1 bills in sequential order. Can anyone tell me their approximate value?

 

Unless some of the notes have fancy serial numbers, I'd be hard pressed to value them more than face value ($100). Some of the larger banks distribute new packs of $1's on an everyday basis.



[edit] Why would you think they would have any added premium @Hesimonds ?

 

The way I collect modern bills is - find one example of each district, from each series.
So I'll try to put together a set of, say 1988-2013 $1, with districts A-L.
Being from San Diego, I have a near-complete set of "L" districts starting from like 1985 or so.

 

I have 4 one dollar bills that are I sequence,
E50918497C thru E50918500C any value to this other than a dollar each.

 

I have five 20'star [...] that do the exact same thing.

 

Most likely nothing more than face value.
