Im curious how these noth grade the same. Is one under grade or over graded? The printed one is from colonial acres and seems more worn than the other. Especally the reverse.
Trying to decide which to keep but want to make sure I'm not overlooking somethin. thanks for the help.

I would agree with the VG-F on the Colonial Acres bill.
They both have heavy creasing.
The other bill has more wear on the corners which brings down the grade.

K. So the grade doesn't really take into account the strenght of the color on the front, As well the wear on the left side of the reverse? Does grade only apply to creases?

You should just go with your gut feeling.
But since your after opinions to me it would be an obvious choice, they're both well worn with soiling and heavy creasing but when I look at the photos of the backs the note on the left just stands out for all the wrong reasons. Just my opinion.

Cheers, Bill

I should've added I think the note on the right could go F-12.

The bill looks better to me, it seems to stand out better then the left bill, could be because of the brighter color.

The one on the right would be my choice: fuller and more complete note, brighter colors. Note on the left "heavily" trimmed at top, color is dull face and back. The right for me.

Bob there are more demerit points attributed to the quality of the note over the wear or quality of the print.
If it were my choice the hand written price tag looks a bit more appealing. The condition of the paper looks about the same so at this point it would come down to tears pinholes and eye appeal
