Received this in payment last night. There are a couple creases... any premium? I have no interest in keeping it, so I may stick in on ebay and see if anyone wants it.   |

At the last show I was at I saw RADAR's in UNC condition going for a fair premium above FV..
You say that there are a couple creases which may put it at best in EF condition... I would say you may catch someone that likes radars... most like 'em UNC.. and for this series they're still pretty widely available..
Not sure if it would be worth the time.. you may be better off keeping it.. or spending it.

It's a shame about the creases, but I think you should put it on ebay, there's always someone interested in radars. |

Always worth keeping a radar bill. They tend to hold their value. The nice part is you always have the face value on the bill. I just wish they left the replacement notes as the X or *. I do miss looking for replacement notes.

The X or asterisk just made it easy... but I still search through bundles and have found a few....but there is a serial number data base that you can check serial numbers for replacements

The creases are probably from the bank machine that counts and verifies.

I would keep it. The creases definitely hurts the value. Most want it pristine. I love radars but the crappy thing is unless you have a 2 digit radar, it takes a long time for them to increase in value. The older, the better. I have a 3 digit $20 radar from 2006 and is in pristine condition. Today it values for $25...in 10 years may be about $35 etc etc.

Creases or folds makes a big difference in grading. Generally that many creases will drop it down to vf. Although I can see only one crease. Perhaps others are folds or partial creases?
