Baanos Valued Member Canada 290 Posts	Posted 07/09/2014 7:28 pm A few years back I met with Louis Chevrier and showed him this note: I suspected it was an error, but he said he couldn't say because it could be reproduced with chemicals. I am trying to avoid grading companies because the fees for one single note is huge, probably more than the premium of the note itself. The note I am trying to get authenticated is this one: Is there anyone in my area who can authenticate it ? Report this Post to the Staff

You are correct, for 1 note 15$ is not expensive. However if you factor in the tax and the shipping both ways(20$ + costs for sending it to them). The premium for my note might be lower than the total costs due to its condition. Plus, it might not be an error so it's a gamble. Report this Post to the Staff

Paisa Valued Member Canada 387 Posts	Posted 07/12/2014 12:51 am BCS does not provide certification for errors. On their website look under grading standards and then special consideration. Report this Post to the Staff
