I have FIVE 1985 $100 bills with consecutive serial numbers and all graded a 63 PPQ CHOICE UNC. Could these unique features increase their value by some or a whole lot?

Serial Worth Staff

Dear Mr. Tom Tarabochia,

Thank you for your inquiry about your five 1985 $100 bills with consecutive serial numbers, all graded 63 PPQ CHOICE UNC.

Based on auction records, I can provide you with a data-driven assessment of your collection’s value:

  1. According to Heritage Auctions, three consecutive 1985 $100 bills graded PMG Choice Uncirculated 64 EPQ sold for $384.00 on May 25, 2021. This represents approximately $128 per bill or a 28% premium over face value.
  2. Your bills are graded 63 PPQ, just one point lower than the example from the auction. While this slight difference in grade might affect value, the fact that you have five consecutive bills instead of three could compensate for this.
  3. Based on this comparable sale, I would estimate your set of five consecutive 63 PPQ bills would likely be valued between $600-650 (approximately $120-130 per bill).

The premium for consecutive serial numbers is real but more modest than sometimes assumed. The auction data suggests a realistic premium of 20-30% over face value for graded consecutive notes.
