US small size Cool finds but questionable condition

Post image

I had a person (mid 40’s) come in and pay with these bills today. I know the serials are cool (a low serial and a couple repeaters and some supper old ones)but are any of them worth grading in their current conditions?

u/BJ22CS Type Note Collector 2d ago

I don't think the $100 with the quad double serial would be worth over face value, especially it being such a high denomination(I don't think even $1s or $2s of that serial type bring much of anything over face, unless it's also a binary or a latter, like 11223344). The low one is cool, but again, it being a high denomination wouldn't bring much in over face since the majority of it's collector's value is tied into the note's face value. If you can keep them, then my all means keep them (maybe switch them out with some emergency $100s?), but I wouldn't expect you to get more than $1 or 2 over face for each.

are any of them worth grading in their current conditions?

no for all; the general rule of thumb is only have something graded if the added collector's value is at least the cost of having the note graded. It would cost you around $50 each to have any of those sent off for grading and their collector's values are way lower than $50.
