It’s hard to imagine that the money we are carrying in our wallet might be worth more than what is printed on the bill. But it may be true if any of those bills have a specific eight-digit serial number on them.

According to The Penny Hoarder, collectors are willing to pay big bucks to anyone who possesses a bill with a unique serial number. Owners of those bills are more likely to make a big profit off a $1 bill with an unusual serial number on it.

That’s why there are many bills in circulation that could actually be worth a lot more than the face value of those bills.

To figure out whether or not one’s bill is one of these prized and much-sought-after bills, one can simply check the serial number on the bill. There is a long list of sought-after $1 notes on CoolSerialNumers.com.

Radar numbers are another favorite sequence of the collectors and, naturally, boasts a high value. These are normally the numerical variations of a palindrome, words that read the same backward and forwards. A serial such as 02233220 is a radar number as it reads the same way from either side.

Then there are super radar numbers that contain the same interior six digits such as 10000001 or 01111110.

Another sequence is ladder numbers, in which every number is either lower or higher than the previous digit. Examples include 12345678 or 98765432.

Double-quad numbers are also a high-paying sequence. Under this pattern, four repeating numbers are followed by another set of four repeating digits. Examples include 44440000 or 11110000.
