<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SteveInTampa, post: 3262381, member: 27107&quot;]Several years ago I had the same question concerning a note I bought that was graded by PCGS. It was graded 64 with no PPQ.&nbsp; I sent the note to a friend that was a former grader at PMG. He cut the note out and inspected for me. He said that sometime in the notes life it had been pressed...disqualifying it from a PPQ designation. I’m not saying that’s the case with the OP’s note, but it’s really hard to tell when it’s still in the TPG holder.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]858382[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Edited to add; Years ago, before TPG’s, many older notes with a natural paper wave were improved (pressed). I believe back then a crisp, flat note was preferred. Opinions have changed since then, along with how the notes are printed. Although we can look for obvious imperfections, it is almost impossible to grade a note accurately with scans or photos, especially when in a TPG holder.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
