Welcome to Treasurenet !!
Either use it discretely in a game of Liar's Poker and/or put it up for sale-- are two alternatives.
If you sell it , check what comparable STAR note bills (Series 1974 from St. Louis) are selling for.
The 2016 Official Red Book values the bill at $160 in EF-40 condition; 192,000 were print

Why is this worth more than $100?

I know nothing about paper money.

Why is this worth more than $100?

I know nothing about paper money.

For one it's a star note and one with a unique serial number that could be more desirable to collectors.

Every serial # is a unique serial #.

It is my understanding the original bill with that serial number wasn't printed correctly. It was destroyed and replaced with this bill - that's why it has a "star."

Some people collect them, apparently.

I can't explain why - any more than I can explain why I collect treasure maps and charts...

Good luck to all,

The Old Bookaroo
