Is that what the red serial number and the red circle are for?

Yes, silver certificates are blue and gold certificates are kind of yellow/amber

Thanks for the info!

Looks wrinkled, worn and torn. I'll give you four dollars for it.

Hmmmm I’ll have to think about it…

Looks fake, how about $3

I'll give you two crisp $2.5 dollar bills

I’m gonna have to call in an expert to take a look at it, do you mind hanging around the store for a bit?

A 60 year old bill in that decent of condition...
Makes you think about the life it's had. Perhaps exchanged a few times early on. Put in a birthday card around 1965, and perhaps fell dormant as a forgotten book marker for 50 years.

There's a movie called Twenty Bucks with this exact premise, tracing the travels of a $20 bill.

Nice. I have collected older bills like that over the years. Don't know if they are worth anything, but they are cool to look at and see how things have changed.

Good idea

Definitely keep it

Year before the Civil rights act. You could probably make a lot on that in auction.

I have a really old dear bill that's blue and says something about silver

Can I borrow $5?

Cool, but not that much more valuable for the age or red seal.
For it to be collectible, it would have to be in crisp mint condition and perhaps have a unique serial Number like A12345678*, A01010101*, A88888888*

That's awesome!

Might have been worth more than 5 bucks if it wasn't a 1963 issue... It's called a Red Seal bill. Pretty cool item, but only a curiosity.

Can I have it

Keep it, but understand you probably don't want to know where it has been.

That is a credit certificate as opposed to a gold or silver certificate
