Coin and Paper Money Collecting/us $5 bill

Question
I have a 1928 $5 bill without the words "In God we trust". Is there any special value?

Answer
No, Robert the 1928 didn't come with in God we trust on it.  That wasn't added until 1963.  Try going to www.ebay.com and doing a search for 1928 $5 bill and see what is being sold.  You can look at pictures of the bills offered for sale and see what the asking prices are, and more important what people are actually bidding, Jim Lawniczak
