2001 $1 Bill, L-D

Have a 2001 dollar bill and want to know its value?

They started making the 2001 series in 2001, no surprise there. They were still making the 2001 series in the latter half of 2004. Dollar notes will always be common and popular in the United States so even after 10, 20, even 100 years they will have little extra value.


From what I understand most of the bills were made between 2001-2003 and left in vaults. As they are slowly distributed errors were caught so in 2004 they would get replaced with star notes. The star notes are replaced but not with the 2003 series instead they have to use 2001. Accuonts for each series must remain the same.

Looking closely at this bill you may see a very minor Offset Printing or Ink Transfer error on both sides. From what I can gather from error sites these were common errors for this year including Faulty Alignment and Ink Smear errors. I am guessing they were caught late.

Here's the stats for this bill...
Type/Federal Bank: $1 Note-Fort Worth / San Fransisco
Year: 2001
Printings: 1,052,000,000
Printed: April 2002
Run: 7th of 15 from L38400001D - L44800000D
Value: $1.50 in CU

Do you have currency and want to know its value? Leave a comment/question and I will do my best to find out the price and history for you.

14 dollars worth, for Comments/Questions click here.:

I am considering buying a mint (Royal Australian Mint) roll of 1977 Silver Jubilee coins. It cointains (see what I did there! :P) 20 of the coins and they are all uncirculated. The price is $29+ $7 postage. Is this a good bargain or woll I be ripped off?
For ten coins they will have to be worth more than $2.90 per coin are they were that much unc? Thanks!

Also is a 1966 1 cent mint roll (again RAM) worth $120 to buy or is i better off looking for a better deal and it contains 50 1966 1 cent coins.

--Assuming these are 50 cents coin even in Brilliant UNC they are about $2.00 each. In the lower grade of just UNC they are about $1.00 each.

It is up to you to decide but if they are in original mint rolls and remain unopened then it may be worth it.

1966 1 cent mint roll (again RAM)
--There are 3 mint made varieties. The most common would have a $50 value.
The 2nd would have a $250 value.
The least common would have a $500 value.

How can I find out the varieties? is it to do with the blunted toe or something I heard about something like that.

The variety is the blunted whisker, hopefully Man can provide more info on how to identify it.

Close Blunted Whiskers.
Made at 3 different mint they all have different whiskers.

Most Common
Canberra has normal whiskers

2nd most common
Melbourne has Blunted whisker on right

Least Common
Perth has Blunted 2nd whisker on right

Here is a great link that clearly shows the difference.

I also noticed something unusual on a 5 cent coin last night. The rim is split into 2 diferent coloured sections. They are probably the same metal and are sill connected but one side of the metal is DRAMATICALLY and visible to the eye darker and this strange occurence happens all the way round the coin. Is this because It has been damaged or sitting in the sun? I would like to know. There is no damage on the rim to suggest tampering and the reeded edge rim things are the same on the dark and light sides of the reeded rim edge thing. A photo is possible but is hard because I woul have to angle the light to show the differences in the darkness of the two sides of reeded edge. This "error" is one the one 2006 australian 5 cent coin.

The coin is a solid Copper-Nickel blend and not sandwiched.

Having this only on the rim suggest it may have been exposed to heat or something. Possibly environmental damage.

Most likely not a true error since I have not seen anything at auction like this.

Japan's strong economy will always keep these coins high value. That said lat year it was at $6.30 today it's at $5.00.

Were you able to see the 1966 mint mark link?

Do you have any information about a die error on the America The Beautiful Yosemite quarter from Philadelphia mint? It's a small die error above the cliff face.
Here is a picture I took, not excellent quality though:

Possible Die Break there has been several and some people got the entire early, mid, and late stage breaks.

They are associated with a Double Die but as far as I can tell they are common enough not to hold any extra value.

Like the Arizona extra leaf you can get all 3 for $10 or less.

They average about $20.00 but a lot depends on eye appeal. 1 mill maybe too small for most collectors.
