Can 2009 US 100-dollar notes still be used anywhere in the world? [closed] - Bank Notes on Brown Couch

I currently have 100 US dollars (2009 series) and want to use them anywhere in the world.



Best Answer

They are valid, in the sense that they are legal tender accepted by the US Government, but any individual business anywhere in the world can decide whether or not to accept them or not. There is no guarantee anyone will accept your money. Some businesses may not accept $100 bills at all (in the United States, it's not uncommon for stores to only accept $20 and smaller), and of course, the place you are going must accept US currency in the first place (US currency is, overall, quite popular worldwide, but only local currency is accepted at most businesses in the vast majority of countries). Some countries have local idiosyncratic practices about currency acceptance, such as not accepting creased or worn bills.

However, the 2009/2009A series is the most recent version of the US $100 bill, containing all the modern security features. If an establishment is willing to accept US $100 bills, they're likely to accept yours.

Can I still use my old 100 dollar bill?

No, you do not have to trade in your old-design notes for new ones. All U.S. currency remains legal tender, regardless of when it was issued.

How much is a 2009 Series A $100 bill worth?

Most 2009 series $100 star notes are worth around $150-200 in uncirculated condition with an MS 63 grade. Some star notes are still current and thus not worth a premium.

Can I still use old US dollars?

The United States no longer issues bills in larger denominations, such as $500, $1,000, $5,000, and $10,000 bills. But they are still legal tender and may still be in circulation. All U.S. currency issued since 1861 is valid and redeemable at its full face value.

Where can I exchange old USD notes?

The bank will simply take in your old notes and issue new ones. If you are exchanging a foreign currency for dollars, the bank should also provide a receipt that includes the exchange rate used and any fees.

Answer 2

Most countries have their own currency and will not accept US dollars as payment. However, you can find bureau de change or currency exchange shops in most large cities and international airports where you can change your US dollars into the local currency, or if you are in the US, into the currency of the country you are travelling to.

There are some countries that will accept US dollars, but you should find out what currency is used before you travel.

Answer 3

US $100 bills are one of the most heavily forged currencies in the world, see for example http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superdollar

A new $100 bill with extra security features was introduced October 2013, labelled "Series 2009A"; is that what you have?

Also note that currency may be rejected overseas for reasons that seem trivial; I recently had a number of smaller bills rejected for: a tiny mark from a ball point pen, a worn crease, a tiny tear in the margin, and a bit of red ink from an ATM.
