[QUOTE="krispy, post: 977999, member: 19065"]You might like to have it authenticated by PMG or PCGS, but there is a price for doing that.

You could also take your note to a coin shop, particularly one that may deal in paper currency, and see what offer they give you. I like to offer[URL='http://www.usarare.com/index22.htm'] this site for looking at examples of error notes[/URL] on sale, but the dealer, who lists a lot of these notes on eBay really marks them up quite high. But you can take a look to see what sort of errors exist and how the more dramatic / significant the error appears the more it seems to drive up values. I'll also say that condition and rarity of the note, it's SN, etc, all the factors one normally considers for grading a note, must be taken into consideration for the gradable value along with the error factor on price. One other alternative to selling is using CoinTalk's own forum to list items for sale, however there are not that many Paper folks on CT so you may find that you have a smaller buyer market here. Good luck and let us know how you make out if you decided to sell it. :thumb:[/QUOTE]
