    Even with the starting serial number 000?

    Low serial numbers start with 5 or 6 leading zeroes.

    Well to a collector it could be worth more than $3. It is a star and it seems pretty crisp. The modern $2 notes are very common and without the star it's not worth more than $3. To me the star is really no big deal, it's just a replacement note. But people do seem to like them, and have bumped up the value more than logic and math dictates. I could see someone paying $5. $97 is 100% no.

    No. I'd be $10-$12 but $15 would be tops. It has 3 leading zeros but a low numbered bill will have 5. It's a keeper for sure.

    So this one is out of the question

    $500 is a collectors item. Comparing it to your $2 note is apples and oranges.
    I don't know where the $10-$15 valuation came from for a 1976 star,
    I don't see that as realistic.

    This thread is about a $1000 1934 note.
    Normally I don't mind posting on an older thread, but this thread is still current. And perhaps you could create a different thread for different questions and topics.

    Excuse my total ignorance but wasn't $1000 a heck of a lot of money in 1934-why would you not want to spend it then unless you were a millionaire or close?

    People tended to save large bills, and didn't trust banks.
    Also, I believe these bills dated 1934 were still being printed MANY years later. So it may be from the 1950's and not 1934.

    Could be over inked 3rd printing.
    But it certainly looks nice.
