What you see on the market are notes from these sheets which have been cut up. They have been third party graded and are being hawked as rare notes when they are not. Hundreds of each denomination are known to exist. Since the notes on the market were unissued, most of them are going to grade high. If you believe in the TPG grading scales, they are all likely to be 60 or above.
