    As you can see the front margins on the above note are just a little smaller
    But they are even and that,s what counts :)

    Analyzing the note:

    This is a very strong note and you could have an argument for a higher grade
    A 66 is not out of the question and some may go that high, but this is a conservative industry and if there is any doubt they will usually demote a note
    Rather then promote one, but a 64 is a good conservative grade.

    Final thoughts:

    when buying a gem note always choose a 64 over a 65, it should actually be the
    Other way around, i have yet to see a 65 look better then a 64 !!

    for our next challenge, you will need to step up you game considerabley and
    for that reason i will be offerin 1.5 points for this one as this is a problem
    Laden note, paper is crisp and gem like but as you can see in the photos
    that almost the whole upper boarder is rippled.

    Welcome back money graders ! this one was another tough call, because of the rippled boarder this not could not be considered as uncirculated, so automatically
    we need to drop this in to the A/U category but where at, before announcing the
    winner here are some examples of a 58 and a 53, do give you a good perspective.

    In comparing these notes and associated grades to the one listed, this note would
    Not be good enough for a mid A/U grade the rippled boarder is a severe set back
    For this note and as you can see even the 53 is much better, so with that said the
    Only thing left here is a 50 ! so my congrats to Swerths for his correct estimate
    of 50 :)
