I have to admit this was another tough challenge! but i dont think it would Be any fun if i made it to easy! your job is to analyze the note and make Your best guess based on the picture you have on hand along with your Knowledge of grading and if that,s not allot well you will sure learn here Also some have expressed concern about making guess,es and being way Off and then feeling a little bit embarresed about it! PLEASE DONT your Here to learn and you will only get better Now on to the notes at hand first the Mpc Series 521 50 Cent note, i was a Little supprised even though this is a great looking note it has some serious Alignment issues on the back that are not evident on the front and is a little Off side to side based on the answers i received all of you really looked at the Front hard, with all of the guesse between 64PPQ and 66PPQ so what did it Grade? PMG 58 with no PQ! designation! On the Bonus note the 1950B $50: We actually went the other way on this one with most of us under grading It, Looks like a fantastic note except for the sever side to side alignment Issue but you have to ask yourself how much would be deducted grade Wise? the answer is allot with no other apparent problems at least to me This is what it graded: PCGS 63PPQ So we didnt have a winner this round on either note but i think we did Learn a valuable lesson on how much centering has a great affect On over all grade.

I am a bit surprised by the results, and in the future you can refer to me as "Stumped in Tampa" Now......on to Paper Money Graders #9. Thanks Rusty.
Wow, I am surprised at the grade of the $50. I would not have thought the centering issue would allow it to grade that high. Stumped wins again! Looking forward to the next one Rusty.
