Nice binary, it would have more of a premium had it been crisp uncirculated. But for face value, it's a keeper.. By the way, it's binary value is 59.
The the right collector of such Fancy Serial #'s maybe a few bucks over face value. But the condition yours is in might hurt the small premium.
I agree with @paddyman98 Terms like Binary and Trinary are made up by sellers who want novice collectors think that their selling something rare/collectable/desirable. Generally, notes like that really don’t have an experienced collector base willing to pay a premium to add those notes to their collection. That being said, there seems to be a small following of people interested in true binary notes (1’s and 0’s) who will pay a small premium. However, as with most modern notes, condition is everything. Once the condition drops below Crisp Uncirculated, the desirability drops as well. Your note has numerous folds and some staining. There are a couple paper money experts on here like @SteveInTampa . I’m sure, he’ll provide accurate info if I said anything wrong. BTW: Even though there would be little/no premium, I would keep that note if I got it in change.
I’m absolutely certain this will sell for more than that on eBay. Probably $6-10 depending on the attitudes at the time. I mean I sold a completely ragged $20 birthday note for $35
Cool find. SOLD prices on eBay are all over the place. I looked at several examples with a low price of $10 all the way up to $46. Pictured below is the OP’s note and a SOLD note from eBay.
In the condition that your note is in I would expect $10 would be the highest a collector would pay for it.
Yes, 59 in binary is 111011. It does not matter how many 0's are in front, they are not counted. So this note is 111011 in binary. Not sure if you were questioning me or not.
