    I know the bill is not in great condition but I’m curious with how rare and if valuable it is

    Please don't let the internet-on-youtube guys or someone on eBay convince you that this is a "Fancy Serial Number".
    It isn't.
    As Michael K. says "Almost" , but as you might be aware, almost only counts with horseshoes and hand grenades.
    Michael K. is very knowledgeable about paper money and his advice can be trusted.

    This is a Fancy Serial Number site you can use to check your bills.

    Cool circulation find. Having that note AND the next note would have been a great score. I believe collectors call the two together as a rollover pair.

    You might get a few bucks for it on ebay from an uninformed collector, but generally it's not worth the effort. Still a nice find, and I would keep it if I found it

    Not that knowledgeable, but the six digits in a row is a near miss.
    Except at that auction site that was posted the other day. Then it's a phony fancy.
    I do like Steve's rollover pair with the 6 zeroes, which has more significance because of the preceding note. A rare instance when consecutive serials do matter.
    And of course the condition looks excellent.

    Nice and worth saving but it's only worth a buck, maybe two.

    I'd put it in a sleeve and hang on to it just because you don't see serial numbers like that everyday.

    Cool, but would be difficult to find someone willing to give you more than face value I imagine.

    Reminds me of the odometer on my pickup rolling over to 300,000. I took photos to show people but no one was as excited as me. I'll try again at 400,000.

    Yota, my first rice burner. It has had the sparkplugs changed once and had to have an O2 sensor replaced at about 190,000 but thats it.

    Is there any "WOW" value to this at all?

    Just a little........but not really. It's an 'Almost' note. It's almost a binary. It's almost a repeater. It's almost...a lot of things, but it's actually none of them.
    It's enough to get your hopes up........almost.

    Sorry, it's just a spender, unless you can afford to hold out a C-note just so you can say " I almost had one! ".

    Good Luck on your continued searches.

    I save those kinds of notes that I find in circulation.. have a whole binder full... I get a kick out of finding them.. doubt they're worth anything but not really interested in selling them so everybody wins... they're fun to look at and I enjoy the hunt :)

    I get a TON of almosts... Hahaha.... Broken ladders... Do have a star Note but it isn't rare... Yeah I'd have loved this 5 be a 0 wouldn't have been THAT much more I know.. but would have been Kool... And I will never be able to work at a register again... That I know .. or close up... I'd be too busy staring at bills or swapping out. , But I have something here to occupy me for a little bit though .. lol
