Answer
Hi Lorraine, a couple varieties there:
Prefix H over A in front of the serial number. $1000 in Uncirculated
Prefix J over A in front of the serial number. $2000 in Uncirculated
Prefix K (or later) over M (or later) in front of the serial number. $65 in Uncirculated
You might try Ebay.com for similar pieces for comparison.
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.
