Hello,

My first post. I've been directed to this site by a member of the Silver Stackers forum.

I have an Australian $5 polymer note. It's a 1992 Fraser-Cole AB19 prefix note with a green serial number (AB 19920741). I've seen these for sale for over $2000. However, mine has ink missing in two places on the back side, so I have no idea how much it's worth.

I'm not a collector of notes, so I'm keen to sell it. Where should I take the note for an honest appraisal of its value? I live in Melbourne.

I've included a few photos. I hope they provide enough detail.
Regards

Green serial numbers are common, I have a fev. And I think the damage will devalue the price.

Don't know about how rare the serial number are, but the jagged edges are definitely signs of varnish and ink damage, post-printing.

Enlil,
I have no doubt the damage will devalue the note. The question is: by how much? Are your notes with green serial numbers undated 1992 issue (serial prefixes AA00 through AB19)?

Enlin - The AA and AB will depend on what numbers they start with, and these will be 92 I believe. The DD is a 93 the Signatures should be different.

I am talking about the green colouration, not the numering.

A $5 note is always worth $5 mate.
It's not a pretty note, but you can always try ebay, best of luck to you.
