Message:: [QUOTE="funkee, post: 1576269, member: 37925"]Here are a few of the problems with Standard Catalog: The Gem 65 value is less than the Unc 63 value. This doesn't happen in the marketplace unless valuations are compiled without regard for when the notes were sold. I have found dozens of these issues. Here are two: Fr. 2400 $10 1928 Gold Certificate: VF $2000; XF $2500; CH CU (63) $35,000; Gem CU (65) $7,000.Fr. 1700 $10 1933 Silver Certificate: VC $3500; XF $9000; CH CU (63) $14,000; Gem CU (65) $11,500. Then we have a problem where the star note value is less than the regular note: Fr. 1860-L $10 San Francisco Federal Reserve Bank Note CH CU (63) $6900Fr. 1860L* $10 San Francisco Federal Reserve Baank Note Star CH CU (63) $5000 Another note that is completely omitted is the Fr. 2305 1934-A $20 Hawaii Federal Reserve Note is completely missing from the book. There are some interesting entries with no explanation, where the valuation for one or more grades is listed at $1.00. I thought this might mean there is no data available, but those entries are actually marked with a hyphen.[/QUOTE]
