<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Notaphylic_C, post: 25673478, member: 130786&quot;]I was going to reply that the note looks washed &amp; then I read your question:</p><p><br /></p><p>Yes- the signatures can be washed off &amp; that is what appears to be the case for your National $5.00 example. From its extensive circulation two signatures, serial #, it appears not to be a &quot;remainder.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>The sailer&#039;s vignette (left) shows many creases &amp; design wear. Examine the area where the man standing (pointing) -between his outstretched arm &amp; the onlooker (foreground) there appears to be missing elements completely (eraser?) which suggest &quot;processing.&quot; The general toning plus all these flattened creases suggests the note was washed &amp; pressed. If it were graded, I would expect no more than a F-15 but this would be &quot;apparent.&quot;[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
