Take it to a coin dealer and have it appraised, a 1934 100 is worth more then face value.

It is a rare find. You can sell it to a collector for more than $100. A person that deals in coin collection can tell without using the marking pen. The mark left by the pen could reduce the value to a collector, but unless it is a counterfeit, it will never be worth less than $100.
From the link below:
Hi...first of all whether the folds are light or more prononced they are still considered folds so all your notes sound like they grade VF or very fine.The first two notes have a book value of about $120.The last one if the back check number which is the small number on the back lower right side is 113 or higher a VF note would have a book value of $200.With the tear it would be worth less but again this is with the back check number of 113 or higher if not then $120 or less.These are book value dealers will offer less so they can make a profit.

First of all, this is supposed to be a military topic... Try asking in collectibles or something.
The pen only indicates whether the paper is the official currency type paper. It may very well be a different type of paper they used 70 years ago and could turn black with the marker... However, you should take it to a collector and get it appraised. If it's not increased in value, you can always return it to the Dept of the Treasury and they will give you a new $100 bill you can spend...

Don't just go out and spend a 1934 $100 Bill, check and see if you can sell it.

Whatever you do, do NOT spend it. It might be worth far more than $100 to a collector. These things were all silver certificates, not federal reserve notes like we have today, and some of them command a hefty price.
If you want, send it to me and I will give you change in any denominations you want, and throw in an extra $10 as a bonus, sight unseen.

It would register Real - They have been using the same formula for making paper money for a long time.
Why would you want to deface it by having someone running a marker over it.

Personally, I would take it to the bank and have them exchange it for newer currency. Banks collect old dollar bills and they are destroyed by the fed and replaced with newer bills. A bill has a life of about 10 years.

It should be fine...however:
Instead of just spending it, why not take it by a coin dealer's shop and sell it? You'd get more than a hundred bucks...and have more to spend.
