I just took a dollar bill to the bank that I'd had for years. I always thought if you had more than half they'd exchange it. She said they want to see at least a couple of the serial numbers on the torn side. Which mine didn't have. She still exchanged it though. \n.

Where did the missing dollar go? Nowhere. A dollar only goes "missing" because the statement "each man paid $9 for the room" is wrong -- each of three men paid out a total of $9, but that $9 included both the room charge and the bellboy's tip. All in all, each man paid out a total of $9 and had $1 left over, completely accounting for the $30 they started with. \n\nThe room cost $25, so each man paid one-third of that cost ($8.33). The bellboy kept a tip of $2, so each man paid one-third of that cost ($0.67) as well. Overall, each man paid out $9 ($8.33 + $0.67) and had a dollar left over: (3 x $9) + (3 x $1) = $27 + $3 = $30.

This isn't a direct answer to your question, but it is possible that someone had slipped the $20 bill in a book back in 1969 and just found it and decided to spend it very recently. If it was out of the light and didn't get circulated, I'd think it would still look brand-new.

Take out a one dollar bill.  I'm going to kick you a $2 bills worth of info. Read THIS.\n\nThe one dollar bill you're looking at first came off the presses in 1957 in its present design. This so-called paper money is in fact a cotton and linen blend, with red and blue minute silk fibers running through it. It is actually material.\n\nWe've all washed it without it falling apart.  A special blend of ink is used, the contents we will never know.\n\nIt is overprinted with symbols and then it is starched to make it water resistant and pressed to give it that nice crisp look.\n\nIf you look on the front of the bill, you will see the United States Treasury Seal.\n\nOn the top you will see the scales for a balanced budget.\n\nIn the center you have a carpenter's square, a tool used for an even cut.\n\nUnderneath is the Key to the United States Treasury.\n\nThat's all pretty easy to figure out, but what is on the back of that dollar bill is something we should all know.\n\nIf you turn the bill over, you will see two circles.  Both circles, together, comprise the Great Seal of the United States.\n\nThe First Continental Congress requested that Benjamin Franklin and a group of men come up with a Seal.\n\nIt took them four years to accomplish this task and another two years to get it approved.\n\nIf you look at the left-hand circle, you will see a Pyramid.  Notice the face is lighted, and the western side is dark. This country was just beginning.  We had not begun to explore the West or decided what we could do for Western Civilization.\n\nThe Pyramid is uncapped, again signifyingfying that we were not even close to being finished.  Inside the capstone you have the all-seeing eye, an ancient symbol for divinity.  It was Franklin's belief that one man couldn't do it alone, but a group of men, with the help of God, could do anything.\n\n"IN GOD WE TRUST" is on this currency. The Latin above the pyramid ,\n\nANNUIT COEPTIS, means, "God has favored our undertaking."  The Latin below the  pyramid, NOVUS ORDO SECLORUM, means, "A new order has begun."  At the base of the pyramid is the Roman numeral for 1776.\n\nIf you look at the right-hand circle, and check it carefully, you will learn that it is on every National Cemetery in the United States.  It is also on the Parade of Flags Walkway at the Bushnell, Florida National Cemetery, and is the centerpiece of most heroes' monuments.\n\nSlightly modified, it is the seal of the President of the United States, and it is always visible whenever he speaks, yet very few people know what the symbols mean.\n\nThe Bald Eagle was selected as a symbol for victory for two reasons:\n\nFirst, he is not afraid of a storm; he is strong, and he is smart enough to soar above it.\n\nSecondly, he wears no material crown. We had just broken from the King of England.\n\nAlso, notice the shield is unsupported. This country can now stand on its own.\n\nAt the top of that shield you have a white bar signifying congress, a unifying factor.\n\nWe were coming together as one nation.\n\nIn the Eagle's beak you will read, "E PLURIBUS UNUM", meaning, "one nation from many people."\n\nAbove the Eagle, you have thirteen stars, representing the thirteen original colonies, and any clouds of misunderstanding rolling away.  Again, we wer e coming together as one.\n\nNotice what the Eagle holds in his talons. He holds an olive branch and arrows. This country wants peace, but we will never be afraid to fight to preserve peace.  The Eagle always wants to face the olive branch, but in time of war, his gaze turns toward the arrows.\n\nThey say that the number 13 is an unlucky number.  This is almost a worldwide belief. You will usually never see a room numbered 13, or any hotels or motels with a 13th floor.\n \n\nBut think about this:\n\n13 original colonies,\n\n13 signers of the Declaration of Independence,\n\n13 stripes on our flag,\n\n13 steps on the

Since you don't give any mint marks or any comments about condition, as well as only describing one side of the coin, this is hard to answer, but I'll do my best. \n\nFIRST COIN: I can't answer this without knowing what's on the back and the size of the coin. There were several coins from this period that looked like this - half dimes, quarters, dollars, and $10 dollar coins. E-mail me with details and dimensions, and I'll find out for you.\n\n\nSECOND COIN: CONGRATULATIONS!!!! You have a fairly rare coin that is worth, at the poorest grade, $85. If the coin is in pretty good condition, it could be worth thousands ($4000 sound OK?). I HIGHLY recommend you take this coin to a reputable dealer to have it appraised and placed in a protective case. You may also want to have it insured.

YOU ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO DESTROY OR DEFACE GOVT. PROPERTY.\n\nUnited States currency and coinage are governed by federal law through the U.S. Treasury Department. Generally, it is illegal to fraudulently deface, mutilate, impair, diminish, falsify, scales or lightens any coins minted or "coined" in the United States or any foreign coins which are by law made current or are in use or circulation as money within the U.S. (18 U.S.C. 331)\n\nIt is also a crime to fraudulently possess, pass, publish, sell or attempt to possess, pass, publish, sell or bring into the U.S. any such coin with knowledge that the coin has been altered, mutilated, defaced, etc. (18 U.S.C. 331)\n\n\nDefacing currency with the intent to alter the bill to gain a benefit is illegal. If someone alters a written instrument (such as a check) without permission and with the intent to gain a benefit, then it is called forgery, which is a crime. If one tried to alter a cash bill (like changing a $5 bill to a $20 bill) for the purpose of presenting the altered bill to gain a benefit, then that could be considered a forgery. Forgery of United States Currency in this manner is called counterfeiting and carries with it very stiff penalties.

Anything that can keep counterfeiters from making bogus money helps. Our old currency did not contain many security features. Now the $10 $20 and $50 have a host of features including threads, watermarks, colors, etc.

Unlike most countries in the world, when the government federalized money and it's printing, when bills and coins are replaced, they are still legal tender worth face value, regardless of their condition or age.  \n\nfor collectors, some money is worth much more than face value.  The value of the $2.00 bill, which has been widely circulated is pretty much still $2.00.  The real value in paper money is the silver and gold certificates...depending on the condition of the bill, can be worth thousands of $$$.

Take it to the bank.  The will accept it, as long as the serial numbers are legible and at least 50% of the surface area is legible.\n\n-Wes

You have to bear in mind that the drinks were not actually $27 dollars, it was $25.  Just because you gave them a dollar each back, they ASSUMED it was $27.\nEven though they had paid $27, you still had to pay their bill of $25 which would leave you the $2.....\nthe missing $1, is therefore, not a missing dollar....!

If money is not an issue, I'd go with $50, using 5 new 10 dollar bills.

Hey Ryan.  I'm a banker so this I know.  $1 dollar bills come from the Federal Reserve in $100 straps.  Every bank and every teller are different in the amount that they keep.  I used to keep in $50 straps.  So, just go to your bank and ask the teller.  They will let you know.  They aren't all new.  You can ask that as well and most tellers will allow you to get them in straps.
