i was looking on ebay and i saw this http://cgi.ebay.com/ONE-KIND-2004-B...0470728551?pt=Paper_Money&hash=item19b8918b67 Doesnt that seem a little high or am i wrong?
Catalog value is $625 but as you know catalogs are just a guide. I have seven mismatched serial number notes (Canadian) and I wouldn't sell them for catalog value. I had sold the first one I found but it went for over catalog value. I've had substantially higher offers on them but I'm not ready to part with them. The seller can ask what ever he wants for his note because they are incredibly rare for anything with that many numbers wrong. I know of one note sold last year that went for almost $20,000 because it had an error in the prefix as well and was found in a brand new stack.
wow. i guess i didnt pay that much attention to the canadian notes, i didnt think they'd go that high.
You got to admit, though, that is a nice note! You don't see those often, especially that mismatched!
True, but the Canadian notes are less common. The BEP prints money so fast that by the time you finish blinking once, they'd printed enough to cover the national debt, yet by the time you finish blinking once at the CBNC in Canada, they hadn't even finished hand-sketching the first note!
This note is from my collection. It has 3 mismatched numbers. I've got two standing offers of $2,500 for it anytime I want to part with it.
nope. It would have to have more than three numbers different to get anything higher than what I was offered.
Most of his notes on eBay looked to be a wee bit overpriced. There's a 1934A $1000 Chicago note in AU50 priced for $3,988. and has a "book" value of $3,500 in a higher grade of CH-CU. However, there is an option of making him an offer.
Like some of mentioned here the price guides are just that! it,s up to the buyer to detrmine If it,s something he,s willing to pay extra for!
