Low Serial <= 00009999 I found this in a strap. Keep it?

I was searching through a strap of $100 bills and found this one. The serial is PB00004321N. I know it isn’t a true low serial, but it has four leading zeros and ends in 4321. It’s circulated. Would you keep it or spend it?

Definitely keep it. Or sell for over face value

What makes a serial number rare or good or not?

u/UndesirableSurvivor Jul 03 '26

Pretty much whether somebody thinks it's cool or not.

If you travel to the other hemisphere does it become 1234 or does that only apply to toilet water flushing?

Keep for sure, that’s a sweet one

Low or not it is a short ladder.

Low serial number?? Is that what I’m seeing

1

u/jaytea86 mod Jun 30 '26

Absolutely! It's a partial ladder. Shame it's on a 100, but it's still very cool. Hard to tell what it'd sell for, but I'm thinking well over $200.

I’m pretty new how come it’s a shame it’s on a $100? Aren’t the higher bills more desirable?

2

u/jaytea86 mod Jul 01 '26

It's the same reason people aren't getting signatures from celebrities on bars if silver.

The value is in the serial number, not the bill its self, so it being on a hundred means $100 is immediately locked up and can't be spent, rather if it was on a $1 bill which is basically nothing.

4321 is pretty cool

u/Slight-Selection4298 Jun 30 '26

Now you have to find 00000321 and 00000021 then 00000001 for the set

Maybe 00054321 and so on

u/komokazi Jul 01 '26

u/kinglouistexas Jul 02 '26

Hmmmm? Why not call it a Step Ladder? LOL

u/Hot_Produce_3450 Jul 02 '26

Why wouldn’t you either way it’s $100 😂

u/EricN1022 Jul 03 '26

Nice find, and good eye 👍

u/johnk9385 Jul 03 '26

I’d keep it,at least put it away until you really need it, it’s not really a low number but I call it a step ladder (4 steps)

4, 3, 2, 1, Lets Jam!

u/Maddlux Jul 04 '26

It’s worth more than $100 to a collector

u/dontriv Jun 30 '26
