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.

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!!

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!!!!!!!!!!!!!! __________________ Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it. http://www.banknotebank.com/?collection=uss656   09-13-2009, 06:51 PM   #4 (permalink) RickieB Expert Plunger Sniper     Join Date: Mar 2005 Location: United States Posts: 6,435 My Mood: Blog Entries: 2 Quote: Originally Posted by USS656 The two was an F-60 in EF40 condition.

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..

The BP-Number is 2100 and is definitely larger than the front. Any effect on value? __________________ Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it. http://www.banknotebank.com/?collection=uss656   09-13-2009, 07:20 PM   #6 (permalink) RickieB Expert Plunger Sniper     Join Date: Mar 2005 Location: United States Posts: 6,435 My Mood: Blog Entries: 2 Quote: Originally Posted by USS656 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??
