Is a 2009 A $100 Bill SN 00000003 Worth keeping?

To my amazement I got a almost perfect condition 2009 A $100 bill serial number LH 00000003 A from cashing a check at the bank a few weeks ago. I've only been checking serial numbers for a month or two and then this bill pops up in circulation!

I've been told these low serial number bills are usually snagged by bank tellers, ATM techs and various other collectors before ever being placed in the public's hands.

So my question is, is this bill worth putting up for auction?

    Yes, your bill would be worth putting up for auction. You may want to consider having it professionally graded since graded notes tend to attract more bidding.

    Yes worth auctioning, grade it as mentioned and sell it, it will gather a nice profit.

    Nice find......
    You should most definitely send it in for grading.
    Let us know what it grades.

    I looked at a bill today that was a $100 bill graded with the serial number 00000005. Not sure the year, possibly 2013 San Fran and a grade of maybe 65. Dealer wanted 3500$. Said he purchased it for $2200. Nice bill, I would have paid 1500$.....surely low offer.
