In this rage for dollar bills with certain quirks which may have a great value for collectors, a coveted new piece has emerged. In this case it is copies that are in circulation and can be worth up to $400.
One such feature is that they were printed in 1976 and have the portrait of the third president of the United States, Thomas Jefferson.
In addition, they have serial numbers and the treasure seal in green. Up until that time, both items had either blue or red ink.
Another singularity is that it has the famous painting of the signing of the Declaration of Independence by John Trumbull. This illustration began appearing on banknotes that year, to mark the country’s bicentennial, and replaced the image of Thomas Jefferson’s house that had hitherto appeared on physical coinage.
However, it must be taken into account that not all tickets from that year reach the most desired price. Collectors have their own very specific parameters.
They look for those copies that are unused, have a very low or rare serial number (for example, in the stairs, in the mirror or with repeating digits). Depending on rarity and originality, prices can range from $15 to $400.
The Kennedy half dollar
Another highly sought-after relic are called coins “Kennedy Half Dollar” also minted that year.
It reaches the maximum price for its copies $220. This price is reserved for those made entirely of silver.
On the other hand, if they are covered only with this metal, the value drops between 3 and 4 US dollars.
We remind you that to determine the price of a special ticket, you can find buying and selling experts on Ebay. To avoid making mistakes, it is best to consult at least a couple of interested parties.
