What is the value of a 1950 G US 100 dollar bill?

Answer 1

1950 E is the scarcest series for 1950 $100 bills. As of 05/2010 values for a circulated note are in the range of $140 to $220 depending on wear. Uncirculated ones go for at least $500.

Serial Numbers

A bill's serial number is a counter and a security feature. In most cases it doesn't affect a bill's value or help to identify it. Some collectors specialize in bills with low serial numbers (e.g. 00000005) or unusual patterns (12344321) so these can bring above-average prices.

In God We Trust

The motto wasn't added to $100 bills until 1963 so a 1950-series bill won't have the wording.

DISCLAIMER: The values quoted are market averages as of the date shown, but may be different for an individual bill due to variations in quality and other factors. Also the wholesale (buying) price of a bill will be less than the selling (retail) price. A reputable currency dealer will be able to give a more accurate valuation based on an in-person inspection.

Answer 5

There was never a 1950 J US $100 bill. The highest series letter, which appears by the date, was E. The "J" is almost certainly the letter code for the Kansas City Federal Reserve District that distributed the bill; that's not the same as the series letter.

Answer 7

There was never a 1950 G US $100 bill. The highest series letter, which appears by the date, was E. The "G" is almost certainly the letter code for the Chicago Federal Reserve District that distributed the bill; that's not the same as the series letter.

Check to see what letter is next to the date. It could be blank or A to E. Then see the question "What is the value of a 1950 [letter] US 100 dollar bill?" for more information There is no 1950 G series. E is the highest series issued.

The series letter is next to the date. You're looking at the Federal Reserve letter.

Most 1950 $100s are worth only face value if worn, up to maybe $140 if nearly new. A nice 1950-E bill is more valuable, with retail prices up to about $200
