that hurts

 

Close but not good enough

 

Thought I'd finally broken the streak!


Then I flipped it over:

Why did somebody have to go after this with not only ink stamps, but a pen? Sigh...

 

So close to being a really cool Zeroes and Eights note...would have kept it
even in this condition

 

Is Jeff's note a radar/repeater? I think that is still collectible.

 

Radar? Yes
Repeater? Yes
A double hit for sure

 

...but a solid miss on condition.

I'll probably still put it up on eBay at some point, but the margins are tight, with a 10% FVF plus 3% PP on the sale price, not the profit, plus shipping. I doubt it'll move.

 

The big question is has someone found the, lets call it the saver serial number, that your note is "almost" to. Or is it still in circulation waiting to be found. We can ponder that forever for there is no way to know.

 

This one is on eBay right now and has following. It is now at $76.

Forgot I had this one. Great for poker.

 

Gotta admit it is a NICE note.

 

It is a very nice note, but the serial number adds no value and that bill is not worth $76 to me. I'd go as high as $5.

 

That was close for a nice radar

 

@eric6794, I’m not seeing anything “almost” about your note.

 

If the last two digits were 50, it would’ve been a radar.

 

If the first was 06 instead 0f 05 it would have read 06800806 aka radar and would be a flipper radar but not so lucky lol. Edit. Nevermind

 

That’s not a radar. Radar is exactly the same front and back. It would’ve been a radar if it as 05800850.

 

I know just wasn't thinking at that moment lol. They got to hire some people at my job working 6 doubles really is getting to me.

 

Ok here is a little redemption from my last blunder of a post. Almost solid. Too bad of the condition it's got a small tear in the fold in the middle and a stain. Someone might want it out there but it's a bit of rough condition for me.
