Is it safe to scan the bill and post it on this site?

Yes. Unless your scanner is radioactive/acidic/basic etc etc  Yes, it's completely safe. We won't steal the serial no. and do... something with it... I'll be so excited to see the note! |

Sorry for being so naive...I'm new to this. I added a photo to the original post. Thanks for your help. I love your animated reply. Wife and I really got a laugh from it!

Very nice, only 144,000 1953-A $10 star notes were printed.

Whoa!! And so you found it?! I think this is at least EF, maybe maybe AU if you can say the crease is a "count mark." It doesn't break the paper does it? I think around $50 is expected... May I ask how you came about this note?  |

Believe it or not, I found it while counting out my cash register at the end of the day when I owned a small business. I noticed an 'odd looking' bill and set it aside. This was about 13-years ago. The best I could guess was that a customer took it out of their collection and spent it at my retail location (God forbid it was taken by a thief and spent). I had found other one dollar silver certs over the years but this was the first ten spot that I had seen.
I attended a coin show recently that happened to be located at the hotel I was staying at. I saw several displays containing silver certificates. I was told to check for the 'star' in the serial number when I arrived home. Sure enough, this is what I found. I had no idea that this bill was a 'keeper' and have held on to it without any knowledge of worth.

Excellent find and it appears that note may grade XF. Retail in XF is $400.

The reverse is attached. I would like to have the bill appraised by a certified ANA appraiser. How is this generally done? Do individuals ship items to appraisers or typically hand carry for 'on the spot' service?  |

Hi Kenny, The prices are as follows;EF $325,CU $1350.00,Ch.CU $2000.00 As far as having it professionally graded try https://www.PMGnotes.com or one of the other TPG's not the ANA. John1  |

Well, EF is $325, so VF is somewhere below it. As for pricing, it goes logarithmically, so make a graph and extrapolate it! Or... go on ebay. You'll be bound to find a similar one. |
