Here are 4 items that I am offered to buy. I found some info on the auction sites. My problem seems to be deciding what grade to assign them. The price difference between grades is sometimes pretty large. I don't want to screw myself or the seller. So I turn to you folks, more the professionals, and say ... "what would you pay for each of these bills?" I am not a strict collector of these items but they are something I don't have. Thank you.
That chief looks mighty fine. However, you might want to post these notes individually with side lighting. This would help us come to a better conclusion concerning the condition of your notes.
I agree, they look pretty good. 1 is in pretty good condition. From the photos available, I'd grade it at about a 58? Maybe less on further inspection. 2 is in very poor condition, many folds, missing a small piece, looks quite limp. I'd grade it at an 8 or 10. Maybe higher. 3 is pretty much the same diagnosis as 1, maybe a little worse from a different angle. 4 is probably in the best condition but on par or a little better than 1 and 3. Disclaimer: This is entirely my opinion, based on little experience.
