Coin and Paper Money Collecting/Santa Claus $1.00 Paper Bill

Question
Hi Brad!  My Dad gave me a uncut 4 count sheet of 1993 $2 bills and also a 1991(?) Santa Claus $1 bill. I really wanted to know if the Santa bill is legitimate, I have not had any luck finding proof of existence. Can you help me?

Best Regards,
Julie

Answer
Hi Julie, the 'Santa Claus' is only a sticker placed over the regular portrait by someone that sold the note as a novelty or a gift. It has no special collector value.
The uncut sheet's value depends on amount of demand and may vary from $10 up. The mint does sell different sizes of uncut sheets.
You might try Ebay.com for similar pieces for comparison.
