I have a 1922 Gold Cert I picked up a few years back. It's F, VF, or XF, don;t really remember the grade. Might be interested is selling it for funds for coins, or outright trade it for coins. Can anyone provide me with a currency dealer who is fair in grading and in buying from a non currency collector ? Thanks Tony
some local member dealers come to mind - clembo, lostdutchman and several others (sorry for those i forgot!) another thing you could do is post in the open forum, and offer it up to the highest bidder (dont think that breaks any rules does it??)
the pic is too small to guess at a value. try uploading the pic to photobucket. Its free, its easy... and most of all... once the link is posted here, we can see the note in all its glory i can see folds, but i can also see what looks like the note was trimmed onthe top and bottom edge.... a larger pic would be needed IMHO
Ok Thanks Dagger, I'll get the pic bigger when I can. I noticed the top and bottom margins were very thin too, thought that's the way these were printed..? If I remeber right this was graded Fine when I bought it about 10 years ago. Tony
http://www.donckelly.com/gold/f1173fvf3.html - that might be the closest (by grade) to what you have - $300. Another note in VF for 350 looks a little better than yours. What percentage of it you can get from a dealer - that's what I also would like to know.
Thanks VRT, I for some reason still see the VF in pen next to the price on the tag. I hope it goes that high. Percentage from a dealer, LOL, just had a nice long discussion about that very subject over in Coin Chat, check it out if you want. I have to shop it around and see what I can get for it. I am not a note collector so if i can get a decent price I'll sell it. Tony
If you going to sell it to a dealer, thats the best thing you can do! Ask a few local dealers, and sell to the highest. My fear is you wont get close to a price you will get on Ebay or another auction venue. Dealers have to take a percentage off so they can sell the note and make money. If the note on Ebay would sell for $300, look for the dealer to possibly offer $200 or so. Every dealer is different depending on which note they can re-sell quickly. Nobody wants inventory that just sits there. To make the most money on selling your note, you would have to sell it to another collector who would be willing to buy it for closer to retail value.
Yes I think I agree here, I'd rather sell to a collector an dget full price, or else just keep it for another few years. Thanks Tony
