What is the value of a five dollar United States note with red lettering?

As of 2014, a $5 United States note bearing a red serial number and seal may be worth anywhere from $6 to $100. According to the buyers at OldCurrency, the bill's value is ultimately determined by its year, condition and whether it is of the rare "star note" variety.

The 1928 red print bill is valued at $7 in circulated condition, with uncirculated bills and those with serial numbers beginning with a red "star" character valued significantly higher.

The standard 1953 red serial number bill carries a value of $6 in average, circulated condition, while uncirculated copies fetch up to $15. The value of star notes of this type range from $12 to $100 for uncirculated bills.

The 1963 bills are the most common of the three and carry an average value of $6 to $15 for circulated and uncirculated condition, respectively. Star notes carry an average value of $10 but raise to $25 when uncirculated.
