I have 15 $1 silver notes from 1935 and 1 $1 Silver note from 34 with a different backing, anyone know how much these would be worth? all are in good condition the note from 34 has a small tear, i can put up some pics if someone wants to look edit-sorry not coins
I had run into the same thing. My wife was a cashier at a grocery store and had asked for change from the courtesy booth. She ended up with 50 silver certificates all in a bundle. She had the money to cover them and bought them. She then again asked for change and got ANOTHER BUNDLE of silver certificates.(all $1 bills) I ended up calling a dealer out of Chicago because I was sure I had hit the mother load......and he told me that the silver certificates that have a green seal on them are worth about $1.50 each. The ones that have a black seal on them are worth more, about $5 each. Red seals I'm not sure about. Then comes finding someone who wants to pay for them. You may have a rare one and it may be alot more than what I said here. But as a general rule, the above usually applies. We are not the guys that get the RARE finds...... only the people in the newspapers are....) Dunes
"and he told me that the silver certificates that have a green seal on them are worth about $1.50 each. The ones that have a black seal on them are worth more, about $5 each. Red seals I'm not sure about" No Silver Certificates come with either black or green seals. These are Federal Reserve Notes which have both a black federal reserve seal on the left, and the green treasury seal on the right. These are the $1 bills in your wallet. Silver Certificates have a blue treasury seal and blue numbers. There are 2 WWII silver certs that are an exception. Hawaii $1 Silver certs have brown seal and numbers with "Hawaii" in big letters on the back. North Africa silver certs have a yellow treasury seal with blue numbers. Red seal and numbers are UNITED States Notes. Only one issue of $1 are US Notes, series 1928, which have a different back than other $1. Any other red seal and numbers are either $2 or $5 bills, although a very few red seal $100 bills were printed in the 60`s. Circulated $1 Silver certs are worth about $1.50 or so. New ones are worth $5-$7 each. Hope that helps.
OK, so Im color blind..... I had forgotten all about the blue seal. I was sitting here looking at my starred reprints. But I got the prices right.. Dunes
thanks! i have a series 1934 bill that has a different back than the 1935's, all mine are blue seals i think, thanks for the input!
