What's it worth?

A couple large size added to my collection today - what value do you give them??? After I get a few answers I'll let you know how I did. I think I paid fair value, but we shall see what you think first. I'll tell you that I didn't get a couple that I would have liked to like the two shown here and a .25 fractional (F-1309) in VF to EF condition due to one edge rolled and slightly damaged. It would have been AU otherwise.

Thanks ~ Darryl

My estimate..(opinion only) Scans can be deceving ya know...

Darryl... the Fr# 237..looks to be a high Grade VF to a mid grade XF...

I would say $50-60.00 (Nice Note)

The $1 Legal Tender is an Fr #38 the most scarce of the signature groups...it look to be a VF35 and will run anywhere from $60-95$...there are Mule varieties for this note so check it good. Need an enlarged reverse image as my eyes are starting to go..LOL

Need better pics on the $2 note. But it is an Fr#60

Nice pick ups!!

The two was an F-60 in EF40 condition.

RickieB - on the LT the front plate is micro F61 - how do I figure out if it's a mule? Is there a back plate number? BTW my book has VF35 at about $140? EF20 at $120? That's from the most recent red book. I also graded about the same as you, maybe slightly better. It looks better in hand than the high res camera shows. It actually looks better than the SC.

Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Darryl...

The Back Plate # is in the (Left) open white field on the reverse at 6:00 O'clock..
check it out!! The Back plate number will be Larger!! From what I can see it appears to be a Mule...These are hard to fine in higher grades...I just had an example walked through the Long Beach show and waiting to hear the grade report..

Thanks - I have no idea how long I looked for it and it was right under my nose. The BP-Number is 2100 and is definitely larger than the front.

Any effect on value?

Ya know Darryl come to think about it...almost every one of them that I have seen is a Mule...
I am not certain on that (value added) to be honest. In the Comprehensive Catalog of US Paper Money there is no reference to that Fr# being a Mule..as well as most of the pricing guides I review..

Perhaps some one else may know??
