The more I think about this, the more ironic it seems.

Here's GovMint honoring the federal reserve note with the Franklin Silver Proof (http://www.govmint.com/currency/currency-proof/2014-100-dollar-1-oz-franklin-silver-proof.html). It's a likeness of a $100 FRN made with one ounce of silver--selling for $100. They even reproduced some of the lost value.

With this line of thinking, these must be worth more.

1928 $100 Franklin Proof – in 99.9% pure silver!In 1914, the very first U.S. Federal Reserve currency notes were issued. Among them was the first $100 note featuring Founding Father Benjamin Franklin. Since then, every $100 bill issued has featured Franklin's image. This is no small honor. For the last 45 years, the $100 bill has been the largest denomination U.S. currency issued by the government.
