2009 $50 star note & 1963 $100 note: worth any more than face?

Probably not, but asking just in case.

Here's what I could find on the star note. I don't know how small a run has to be to make it more valuable, but it's a smaller run than the $100 star note I found a few months ago.

$100

Serial #: C00722628A

No idea where to look for info on the "Series 1963 A" $100 bill.
I assume it is just worth $100...

Only reference I found were these websites that say it's pretty much worth $100 unless in uncirculated condition:

Unless they are both uncirculated, they have little value over face.

The 2009 $50 Chicago star is from a huge run, and was distributed mostly in packs of 100. The Dallas star (JK*) is the key note for the series.



The 1963A $100 would be worth maybe $140-$160 in uncirculated condition.

 

These are not uncirculated, right?

 

Yours appear to have some signs of circulation.

 

Thanks. I was afraid of that. Oh well. There's always next time.

 

Well, you all seem to have hit that one...I found out my 'Uncirculated' Two dollar notes were also worth little more than face....but then the only way you can recoup the cost---or at least break even--is to sell to other collectors (not dealers) who want the same item you already have...otherwise fees and such bring the net sale back to about cost even at auction...Of course, older rarer examples can be worth quite a bit...

I'd love to see some postings of the earlier issues...'horse-blankets' for instance---that you guys may have...Unfortunately, I had to 'liquidate' all I had and only now buying a few...CSA notes to start...as a "type' collection..
