No, it's only worth $50. You'd be better off spending it.

Edit: It's a partial reverse ladder, so it might be worth more than face value.

 

I like it.

 

I like it to cause I read it at 11,10,9,8,7,6,5...I think I'll keep it.

 

That's what collecting is about. Enjoy it.

 

Not a fancy note.

 

Interesting.
I've never considered using two contiguous numbers as a two digit number.
I've never even seen it mentioned.
If it were mine I'd keep it and do some research about that.
Unless setting aside $50 would put a crimp in your living.

 

I've asked the question to a known dealer.
Waiting for an answer.

 

It’s a fancy number on Planet eBay and nowhere else...

 

It's almost a reverse ladder but it misses.
Check out the "Almost" thread in the Paper Money forum.

 

It's only fancy in ones own mind.

 

How about Planet eBay's moon? Etsy

 

The answer I received from the known dealer is, 'No, it's not a fancy number.'
There are only four true ladders: 98765432, 87654321, 12345678, 23456789.

 

The first two are reverse ladders while the last two are ladders.

 

Most collectors use the terms “up ladder” and “down ladder” as descriptions.

 

I might point out...my interpretation and not to be nit-picky...also if I see the numbers correctly...that you must use the second number in 11 (1) to make the first number in 10 (the same 1), so the reverse ladder is really from 10 down to 5 and not from 11...5. Would that be right if it means anything effecting value...? No paper expert.

 

Incorrect! There are 8 digits in the serial number and they can only be used once.

 

Man, if it ain't worth nothing, just give it away or hide it. But don't put it under dirt, paddyman will find it. A little humor, thanks for the post.

 

hey Richard Dye welcome to CT. yea its neat, no extra value really. thanks for sharing. good luck

 

Walmart is always a good place to spend it, like the others nothing special about it
usually odd serial numbers make it valuable along with condition.
