1902 National Currency printed using sheets of 4, sometimes mixed values 3 $10 and a $20, etc. The use of identical serials numbers creates more the one potential #1. And sometimes they do have a 001 serial #…… and they carry a premium

I don’t know much about old paper currency value, but ‘1’ does seem to be a lame serial number. Couldn’t they have made it 0001 at least. I wonder what it’ll fetch at auction. One thing’s for sure, the $5 bill would buy you a hell of a lot more than it does now!
