This pair is not worth 10K although it is a relatively low serial number ( below 10 ). There are much better notes available at 10K. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Anyway, it will be impossible for the seller to sell it at $10K especially in ebay. Most serious collector will not buy this pair at 10K as they knew the market prices. Novice collectors will not buy them because they are expensive to collect. It is beyond their budget. In addition, the pair is not unique and also a number 4 is not popular among Asian Chinese collectors. It may not matters for US collectors. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The largest market for fancy number especially solid numbers come from China, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Singapore. I am not sure about Japan and Korea but Korean solids seems to be very expensive. I am not sure why.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Western collectors prefer low serial number especially the first number 00000001. The most desirable collected fancy number among all world collector is the first note that was printed for a series. It must be the first prefix e.g. A 00000001 A for the USA. The other countries ones can be OAA 000001, AA 000001, A 000001, AA 00 000001, A/1 000001 etc. They usually command a very high premium over their face value. A USA A00000001A note can be easily sold over $300,000 USD.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>At such high prices, you will need a lot $$$. It is way beyond the reach of most collectors. Collectors who buy them usually do it as an investment since they are unique. These notes may double or even triple on what they paid over the years. Last year in a public auction in Singapore, a pair of Singapore-Brunei $20 (2007) Commemorative notes with 000001 went for $114,000 excluding a 21% commission. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The value of collectiable note is greatly affected by it&#039;s mintage and it&#039;s uniqueness plus the market forces at work.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
