You really don't get the true perspective of a notes condition with two dimensional flat scans.

and hence my question about how that note looked in hand

Side lighting can show why a note graded VF30 deserved the grade, as shown below.


Great visual example Steve!

I am defiantly not even remotely a expert, but we have 3D printers. What technology are they using.

Picked this up earlier this week on ebay. Price was decent after a 10% bucks promo and free 2 day priority shipping was a plus

It never gets old, seeing the vignette of Monticello on the back of small-size LT $2's.

Exceptional example BD, congratulations on the add.

Beautiful example. I assume "See Comments" refers to EPQ?

Most likely. Now, all PMG notes 65 or higher are by definition EPQ (and older ones 65 or higher will be reholdered upon request if not so noted as EPQ). PMG may have also noted "great embossing".

Very nice note!

I've always wondered about the "Great Embossing" comment. You're suggesting this also implies EPQ?

Yup, EPQ is the only comment.

No. I think they are independent of one another, since I've had notes without EPQ (and lower than 65) with the "great embossing" notation. Maybe it was a precursor to EPQ?

Think I've got it - so there shouldn't be any PMG 65 "See Comments" notes that simply have "Great Embossing" on the back.

I would think "Great Embossing" = EPQ unless there are other comments like "minor tear, stain" or such detriments. Great embossing implies the note hasn't been pressed and therefore should be EPQ.

I have a PMG UNC 63 with no EPQ next to the grade but "Exceptional Paper Quality" on the back of the holder with "Great Embossing & Color" on the reverse (indicating it was graded before EPQ was added next to the grade).
