    It is a very nice note, but I am doubting that it will even reach $2,500.
    A $1 note will a matching serial is listed on eBay for less than 1K.

    I can see how they could imagine that. A similar note and the results. The one shown has a slightly higher grade.

    I tend to avoid high denominations (solid or no solid #) & would pass on such a new series with no EPQ. Nothing turns me off more than dreamy auctioneer estimates.

    That’s one hell of an estimate ! I have found from my experience that auction houses like to inflate estimates to entice
    higher bidding and values.

    It very well may bring that much with all 8 digits of the serial number the same. Not from me but there are a number of people that are nuttier than I am.

    somebody spent serious cash for a note that has a hard fold, I guess it's cool that it's a solid serial but for that I'll pass

    Waaay to rich for my blood. Nor am i that enamored with it to need it for my collection. However, I don't see any fold, let alone a 'hard fold'. I'm not a currency collector, but I don't believe it could be graded in the uncirculated condition with a fold. What I think you're seeing is the shadow of the security stripe from the back of the note.

    Seems appropriate. I wonder what the Lucky 7's, 11's and 21's go for?

    Cribbage is a whole different game. Love playing family on the holidays. 4's can make a good 20 hand. Even a 24 hand on a good day.
