<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TIF, post: 2320209, member: 56859&quot;]Hi all,</p><p><br /></p><p>While visiting my mom recently I came across this pristine CSA note.&nbsp; I&#039;d already gathered and sold the rest of the old family currency but this was stored separately.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m certainly no expert on grading currency, but this note is on utterly crisp paper and has no creases, folds or other signs of wear or cosmetic issues (as far as I can tell).</p><p><br /></p><p>The images are hasty cell phone pictures with poor lighting.</p><p><br /></p><p>I understand that it is not a high-dollar item, but from what I see there can be a significant jump in price for high grade notes on premium paper.&nbsp; Unless I&#039;m missing something, this note should grade Gem unless the faded ink is an issue.&nbsp; The red ink is not as faded as the images suggest but it <i>is</i> faded.</p><p><br /></p><p>My questions:&nbsp; With the goal of maximizing the sales price and therefore spendable money for my mom, can you recommend the best route for selling?&nbsp; Should I send it to Heritage?&nbsp; Consign it elsewhere?&nbsp; Have it graded (by which company?) and then sell privately and if so, which venue?&nbsp; Sell privately without grading?</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]468795[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>In the holder with the bill was this note from my grandmother, indicating that it once belonged to my great great grandfather.&nbsp; Given his age, he probably acquired it when the currency was still in use.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]468796[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
