Could the collar holding the seal and district numbers have simply broken in half? It is printed with a lot of pressure after all.
Interesting idea. But wouldn't there be a fold on the note, keeping it from a 64 grade? Or is your diagram of an entire sheet, and the fold missed...
Precisely. The right side of the black over-print is just fine. The "11"s are in the correct location. However the "11"s on the left, and the...
Actually, the $10 NY FRBN is the least expensive of the 12 districts, considering it had the most number printed at 5,556,000. The next highest is...
Don't rush to jump on me and announce that "the black and green overprints were printed separately". Yes I'm aware of this. But there is something...
The serial numbers can still be present without the seal. You're thinking of an error where the entire 3rd printing is missing. A seal can be...
A lot of early bills were cut by hand. And a lot were cut outside of the BEP. Sheets were distributed uncut to banks, and signed and cut there....
Without knowing the exact serial number range, it's hard to say. Just an average $100 star with no fancy serial number will fetch about $120 on...
It all depends on how much currency you look through. Working at a convenience store, you're bound to handle a lot of cash and probably find a...
I've seen one other a few years back, but didn't have the chance to purchase it. This is something I'd like to own too if given the opportunity.
Unless the margins are oversized to begin with, then PMG and PCGS will note the trim job if it's decided by the graders. Unless there is...
Quarter-pack of 1953 $5 silver certs. It's just enough to qualify for bulk pricing at PMG if I ever decide to get these slabbed. [ATTACH]
In uncirculated condition, these should fetch about $60 to $75. However, yours is not close to uncirculated. It's more like Very Fine. At that, it...
It's not worth getting it graded. We can say with 99.99% certainty that it's a reproduction. Sorry. It would be a waste of money to do so.
It's completely fine to post serial numbers. Since you have prefix A and suffix A, then it is one of the first printed for that series.
To confirm my suspicions, I did a Google search for State of Alabama $100 reproductions and this website came up:...
There are a variety of ways to tell. But due to quality limitations of photos posted online, my preferred method is the color of the signatures...
The Alabama note is a reproduction. The 1917 $1 legal tender is about $30 in that condition. The $1 Philippines Victory Note is about $3. I can't...
You've got a lot of hundreds there. Very cool block set! I don't have as much liquid capital to invest into these. I would probably invest it a...
All U.S. currency comes from the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. Some collectors' items with special serial number notes, star notes or sheets...
