    I got this from an ATM this week, I couldn't believe it. How is a note like this not noticed before? I think there's no point getting it graded as it's been folded and has some other bends but I am curious if anyone thinks that would make sense. IMG_0150a.jpg IMG_0151a.jpg

    I wouldn't have it grade either. Hold on to it until you're ready to sell. I'm sure someone will eventually buy it. :D

    Leave as is but a buyer of fancy notes would be interested in it. That’s a nice low number.

    To bad about the folds on back, if graded you would probably get an A/U 53-55
    designation, not high enough in my opinion to get it graded great conversation piece
    on the cofee table :)

    I think lower....probably PMG-40 or so.

    The corners don't appear to be razor sharp and the crease/fold is easily noticeable. I see a total of 3 creases/folds.

    Great find, though.

    Grading bills IMO is much harder from pictures than with coins.

    Check out this Gold Certificate. I've posted it here and elsewhere and experts have thought it was as high as PMG-65. I can't recall anybody saying less than PMG-55.

    It's a PMG-45. You have to angle the bill under special lights to see the folds/creases and it has pretty sharp corners.
