I think I remember in a previous thread goatieman said about $80-100 for an average circulated one.

Oh darn.........

Much better info from goatie than I could ever come up with.

It's very difficult to accurately grade banknotes from scans on a screen. I have scanned vg 95's in vf and looked almost unc on the screen. With circulated polymers like these, to grade them hold them to the light and look for the clear white spots where the ink is gone, this is almost always in the centre edges where people fold notes or they are rubber banded. The less white areas, the less circulated it is. ALso the clear window is common to be abrased. Fresh, crisp examples of this note display minimal abrasion and minimal missing inks. After selling maybe 100 examples of this note, I found maybe 90% of them to be in fine condition, 9% in very fine and the other 1% g vf to ef. Basically ef and above... Likes hens teeth. Most will be heavily circulated and be in the realms of by fine to g fine. The examples shown, first one should be vf and second one fine, around there. The top one could be better, hard to say as you can't see how many folds are actually in the note.

Hey Mendo,

When I sell notes online (which I have to start doing again because they're bulking up) I use a third photo, rather than just the front & back, I do a light shot, so people can see every crease, fold, indent or whatever else is there. If you want to buy coins online; you're always worried that there are some scratches you can't see in the pictures. When you buy polymer notes online; you're always worried that there are a heap of folds or light creases you can't see.

It will allow for a more accurate grading. Hope this helps.
