Answer
Hi Jennifer, this is a 1944 100 Francs note issued by Allied forces at the end of WWII for use in occupied France. Collector value may be worth about $1 with heavy wear to around $6.50 with moderate wear to maybe $20 with light wear.

You might also try a library for a copy of the Standard Catalog of World Paper Money for pictures, values and lots more interesting info.
