I would grade that note as Fine which would give it a book value of $265.
The "book value" is generally the maximum you are likely to get for the note. In reality (especially with the banknote market the way it is at the moment) I think it is far more likely that you will get about half that, which is $130.

Would you recommend I sell it or hang on to it?

I would prefer to sell it I think. What are the best places to sell these kind of items?

ebay is always a good place to sell, however there are other sites similar to it but I don't no the ins and outs of them. Another possibility would be a company that buys notes, but they may be very picky regarding condition-or they won't offer the figures suggested above in my opinion. Here are some links to places that may buy it. http://www.thebanknotestore.com/valuations.htm http://www.londoncoins.co.uk/?page=...ellYourCoins again these places may not be much help, but worth a try. If you check how much your note is selling for in that condition on ebay, then price yours the same if you're comfortable with the price.

I have one of these 10 shillings. Not as nice torn edges. Gov is Armitage? same Sec Treas.McFarlane serial # F/28 505606. Any good value?
My daughter-in-laws Father and Grandfather got in WWII. and earlier. Plus 50-60 others of Japan, Korea, Phillipines, with some Unc and others Barely readable like they were found in the battle field.
Most are dated 1940`s back to 1890`s. The older are Mexico, Cuba, Trinidad
My Grandson left these with me to figure out there origins. I have several pages I could email to someone if they PM me their email. I would be glad to send a link.
Thanks

Thanks AAo7, The notes edges have small tears on edges like a wallet in a pocket for quite a while.
