[QUOTE="funkee, post: 1717901, member: 37925"]According to the US Paper Money Errors book by Frederick J Bart (3rd Ed), the 1974 $1 with an inverted overprint has the following book values: Fine ($200) Extremely Fine ($350) Choice Uncirculated ($500) Keep in mind these are "book" values and are high retail. Searching Heritage (HA.com) for "Fr. 1908 inverted" I got some better numbers on past auction prices: AU 58: $253.00 CU 63PPQ: $322.00 Gem 65EPQ $352.50 Gem 66EPQ $381.88 Gem 67PPQ $411.25 Keep in mind that you'll almost always pay more in a retail setting than an auction. Also raw notes will not command the same price as a graded notes. $500 in my opinion is too high unless this note is graded and comes back 68PPQ or higher. If the top margin was a bit smaller, then I'd say it could grade 68 if there are no other flaws. I wouldn't pay over $350 for this note, simply because I could probably pick one up at auction for that amount with a little patience.[/QUOTE]
