<p>[QUOTE=&quot;KSorbo, post: 1911276, member: 56370&quot;]I have a question regarding pinholes on large size notes and how they affect grading and market acceptability.&nbsp; I am specifically referring to PCGS and PMG graded notes in the VF-XF range that do not have a PPQ/EPQ designation.&nbsp; Is it considered acceptable for these notes to have pinholes even if they are graded problem free with no comments on the holders?&nbsp; When buying online it is not always possible to determine whether a note has pinholes, so when I get a note that turns out to have them, I am concerned that the market may value this as a &quot;problem&quot; note even in a clean holder.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>If my understanding is correct, a note designated as EPQ or PPQ should have no pinholes, while one without that designation may have pinholes or be reconditioned in some way.&nbsp; So does the price of a non-PQ note already take into account that it may have pinholes or other issues?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
