Answer
Hi Joe, Collector value of a note depends on date, series letter or signature and condition, including amount of wear, any folds, tears or stains as well as collector demand. There have been so many made of these that only the uncirculated ones (no wear) have any significant value above face value.
$2 Series 1928D $2-$8 with wear, $30 without wear (uncirculated)
Series 1953 $2-3, $8 in above conditions
Series 1953B $2-3, $8 in above conditions
