<p>[QUOTE=&quot;HoldingHistory, post: 3549930, member: 41668&quot;]Hello,</p><p><br /></p><p>I have always been just a coin guy, but Colonial paper money has been grabbing my interest for quite some time now, so I decided it was time to take the plunge. My biggest question right now is how do you grade it? I have found a number of things on paper money in general, but Colonial notes often have certain issues that are not mentioned in any of the generic grade descriptions I can&#039;t figure out how it affects the grade. </p><p><br /></p><p>Are these usually just noted in addition to the grade? What would cross the line to making it an &quot;Apparent&quot; grade? Some of the issues I have in mind are tears, missing sections from the edge, torn and repaired, pin holes, etc. </p><p><br /></p><p>Curious too if it is generally a good or bad idea (assuming you have the requisite skill) to remove tape repairs and do something like a Japanese paper repair instead? I know that is how documents are usually repaired, but I can&#039;t find anything on what is best for notes.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
