At least 5 dollars! lol
Seriously, a bill that old would likely have some value. Some of them can be quite rare. It would depend on:
(1) The series and/or Federal Reserve Bank associated with the bill.
(2) Its condition. A bill that is stained, ripped, wrinkled, or worn would be worth much less than one in newer condition. The better its condition, the more it would be worth.
(3) Is it classified as a Federal Reserve Note, Silver Certificate, or Gold Certificate? Back then, they had all 3 of these types.
You can purchase a book at most hobby stores or coin dealers that can help you evaluate the bill's condition and its value. Shouldn't be expensive. Or you could take it to a dealer and I'm sure he'd be glad to evaluate it for you. If you use the book, read the fine print and determine if the prices are what a dealer would likely PAY for your bill, or what he would SELL it for.
In some cases, the bill would be worth holding on to; in others, it would be of more value sitting in the bank and earning interest for you. But you may have something special. Check it out!

not unless it is in mint condition. That means no folds, tares or no signs of ware. The 1928 does not mean that was when the bill was printed. It the date changes only when there is a change in the designed of the bill or that the sectary of Treasury Left office. If the treasury of state leaves office and the Secretary is still in office there will be a block letter under the date 1928.a or 1928 b and as on. If it has a * after the serial number that means that bill was reprinted because of a flaw during the origial printing.

depending on its condition it could be worth more than $5 to a collector. is this a gold dollar? or silver certificate? check out price guides...should be able to browse one at a book store near you...or go to a reputable collector. don't get your hopes up tho - i doubt its worth a lot more than $5...i once had a 1928 $100 bill and it was worth $100.00...tho i was told then if i had a $20 bill from 1928---it would also be worth $100...depends on condition and scarcity. URL below is for amazon...at least one book of prices..etc...but to save money checkout your local bookstore..see what they have...

Yes, it is worth something. I was just at an auction on Saturday where older bills such as yours were selling for about $10 each. However, this is dependend on the condition. Look on ebay for the average going rate of your item (see link below).

If it's in uncirculated condition, yes. If it's in nearly uncirculated condition, its worth between $5 and $10. If it's in average condition, it's worth $5.

Why yes it is!! Keep in dry location & as flat as possible, inside a book perhaps. Look up going prices on ebay & then find other sites through google. My husband is a coin dealer on ebay, but he doesn't know much about paper money. Wish I could help more, but please research before you sell it!!!

You should take it to a local coin shop and see how much it is worth. They'll have price guides and stuff.
