Paper Currency Question

I can't upload a picture but I will give description.� I have a $5 bill 2013.� The serial number is MF00009792*� So my question is, is this bill worth keeping and of an increased value as a result of its serial number?

thanks for any input

I would say keep it, its a star note, but not exactly a valuable serial number, (I found a 4 digit zero in my change i got yesterday. I would still keep it because its a star note.

You need to get a book by Freidburg. Paper Money of the United States.. It says it all. That being said, I would say no unless you collect star notes. You can always check ebays SOLD auctions for real world prices.

While a low number, not sure it is low enough to bring value to those who collect based on the serial numbers. But it is only $5 to keep it in your collection, so either way should work.

I notice you have a star after it. Some people.collect them but it's the rare ones from 1935 and earlier that are worth money some even after that date. . It also depends who signed it or if the seal has a different color. This is basically face value.

Doubtful Vee, if the number were historical in some way, like 00001865 or 00001809 (both tied to Lincoln) or if the number had some other unique feature, it might be worth a premium, but I would say NO, it is only worth face value.

Actually, I did not pay attention to the * It might be worth a small premium after all
