Question
I have a 1977 series one dollar bill with the final digit missing from the serial number on the left hand side of the bill - the right side shows the digit. The bill is in good to excellent condition. What is the approximate worth?
Hi G.E., Error value depends on type and extent of the error as well as amount of folds or wear and collector demand. This may be worth about $20 or more.
