Coin and Paper Money Collecting/CURRENCY

Question
I FOUND A 20.00 BILL IN EXCELLENT CONDITON AT WORK.  THE DATE IS 1934 A
AND THE SERIAL NUMBER IS L371658948. IS THIS WORTH ANYTHING?

Answer
Carmen, my pricelists for currency are now getting pretty old, so not very reliable. In any event condition is very critical to value. I suggest you go to www.ebay.com and do a search for 1934 A $20 and similar searches and see what comes up and is being sold.  You'll usually see a picture which will allow you to compare condition too, Jim Lawniczak
