Expert: Brad Swain - 2/17/2010


Question
I have a $100 bill with the small picture of Franklin.  It is a green seal with the following #:  B94825138E
Is it worth more than its face value?

Answer
Hi Dorene, Collector value of a note depends on date, denomination (face value), series letter or signature and condition, including amount of wear, any folds, tears or stains as well as collector demand.
