WoodenJefferson Posted February 15, 2008 Report Share Posted February 15, 2008 Received a $10 bill in change the other day…stuck out like a sore thumb. 1934 series WA Julian/Henry Morganthau, Jr. signatures. Bank of Boston (A) with a green seal. It has a center fold but otherwise in pretty good condition with no dog ears or tares. What is the value for such a note (ball park) Is it worth hanging onto? Thanks in advance since I know very little about paper money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTHead-migration Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 I'm a coinee so this is not my area but the March 2008 COIN PRICES has 34 pages of U.S. currency with values. If I am looking at the correct note (KL#2045 - 1934A FRN without a star) it lists at $11 in XF, $25 in CH CU (63) and $40 in GEM CU (65). I'd hold it just because it's old, but that's just me.

jtryka Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 I agree with this assessment, depending on condition it might be worth 2-4x face, but I would keep it just because it's old! Heck I save series 1995 and earlier (small head) notes just because they are different! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsshog40 Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 I'd keep it for the heck of it too. I was keeping a 1950 $20 bill for a long time just because. Needed the money and had to spend it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoodenJefferson Posted February 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 Thnaks for the info...yeah, I showed it to a mutual collector and he thinks some kid might have pilfered a collection and it somehow got back to me as change from a twenty. It is now residing back into a collection...resting, once again, worry free from the Federal shredding machines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heck I save series 1995 and earlier (small head) notes just because they are different! Thats what I do. pre 1995 i hold from the change ( even singles i do). and for me to collect anything 1996 or newer it has to be a fancy number , a real low number starting with 000 or a star. or an error. i think thats why i got like 810 singles laying around now. but makes me happy to collect these older style ones. i finally cracked 100 notes in my $20 dept. im stoked about that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
