Cool Serial Number...but what to call it?

    I put this aside because I thought it was kind of a neat. I’ve thought about trying to sell it but can’t figure out what to call it. I know that $100 notes aren’t collected the way smaller denominated notes are.

    Should I send it back into the wild? Or is it worth more than face? What would you call this serial number?

    I would keep it as a novelty. Not easy to find similar 'doubled digits.'
    See what I did there?

    I would simply call it "four pairs".

    I like that it also starts off with the "LL" :)

    I believe the Official name is Quad Doubles.

    Too bad it wasn't 22446688 LOL. Also, too bad it is a $100 as most collectors want the smaller denominations.

    If it was a $1, I would keep it, but with it being a $100, back to circulation. The cool factor is definitely worth a $1, but not $100 IMO

    It would be extra neat if all numbers had a two variation, the 5,s kinda close
    that down, great poker hand though if nothing else.

    Old Hoopster is right, $100 is too much depreciation in face to keep long term. If it was a $1, $2, or $5, sure, but that $100 is better put into a growth stock and 20 years from now, buy 3 or 4 interesting serial number notes... instead of a $100 that has lost half it's purchasing power.

    Oh, I don't know, two pair is the highest hand you can "legally" use; so I think maybe this one ( SIX of a kind, or Four of a kind with an Ace. LOL

    Quad Doubles is a term I have heard before and think it matches this note. For me, I collect $100* so this would be a catch and release. But to each their own!

    You always take the best hand. Two pair, 8s over 5s.
