Coin Scavenger Valued Member Canada 444 Posts	Posted 09/13/2015 8:14 pm I need some help from forum members, I can't seem to find much information on this bill. The bill doesn't belong to me and I don't have it in my possession. The owner of this bill is looking to sell it and I was trying to get a rough idea of grade and value. I found an old auction with a Vg that was estimated at $600 to $800. Report this Post to the Staff

Very Good - $650 Fine - $1000 VF - $1850 EF - $3750 This is from the most recent Charlton guide 8th Edition. Edited by trimble 09/13/2015 9:15 pm Report this Post to the Staff

AgCoinAu Pillar of the Community Canada 3049 Posts	Posted 09/15/2015 11:39 am May I recommend you really doing your homework on this or any other chartered note... Charlton provides great information but similar to their coin catalog the prices listed aren't realistic at all. Report this Post to the Staff

The paper money market has been very slow for the past couple of years as well, so it will be hard to determine a realistic value. Report this Post to the Staff

TheCoinHunter Pillar of the Community Canada 1461 Posts	Posted 09/16/2015 12:44 pm I wouldn't attempt to sell this note raw. Spend the $15 plus shipping at BCS to have it graded or even better at PMG (but more expensive). Report this Post to the Staff
