I should have a contest to see if anyone can guess my place of birth.

Three banks in turn of the century Tampa, in three different TPG holders.

I was in Yakima once, about 25 years ago, and I sort of felt like Brian Dennehy was going to roll up and arrest me.

Nice notes Steve; Especially the Exchange National. Those are some bold signatures.

I also like this pair. Not GEM, but nice eye appeal.

Steve: Wonderful high denoms!

I love them. Especially the $1000 LGS!
Nice serial number.

The Tampa bills are very cool.
This bill is in perfect condition.
Perhaps, the best known example.
The brother was sold by Heritage.
I Think that my bill looks better.

Steve - super notes.

hajduk - beautiful, and I am envious, but to be honest the obverse centering on your note is not even close to the 66 that sold on Heritage, imho.

Yes, you are in right.
But I overrule the PCGS or PMG rules.
For me, the centering is not so importnant.
Why?
The centering is the resultat of the production.
My bill has sharp edges, like a new bill.
The heritage bill has a round edge at the top right and I can see small wrinkles.
Exactly in the white box on the back, I can see that.
I also see stains on the back.
These things are not the result of the production.
That is the result of wear.
But for a clear judgment you must have both bills in your hand.
Both are pretty and the differences are marginal.

You could be right. I am not a big fan of PCGS currency grading compared to PMG, for sure, but I think the skewed centering on your note (assuming it is uncirculated and PQ paper) would limit it to a 64 at best from either service, and possibly only 63. The margins are virtually gone at top right and bottom left.

We are friends, and I am only trying to be objective.

Will you submit this to a TPG to settle the issue?

Hi Coinfrog,
You're right.
The best is a discussion with friends.
So we can learn more about our hobby.
