It is amazing that someone sent that note in to be graded, and that it received a 4.

The history is that the dog chewed it up after eating my homework.

Should we start a poll to see if anyone thinks it will receive a bid?

Must have been a lowball collectors reject.

And the seller listed it for $26! That not is worth no more than face value in my opinion.

Holes, missing pieces, and discoloration. A collector's trifecta!

Ended with no bids. I figured it would -- Unless there was someone out there desperate enough to add this graded washcloth to their lowball collection. |

That's one rough-looking note. "graded washcloth"...indeed hahaha
Can't imagine there aren't better condition non-graded ones to be had for about the same price.

Maybe it held some sentimental value and someone had it for a low ball set.

At work, I have some random notes from my various Asian travels hanging in some float frames. In one of the China frames, there is one of those vertical notes from the 30s/40s that has more holes, fewer corners, and equal discoloration. Its as far from pristine as won could hope for; a true "survivor" that proudly won't let go! Kinda looks like mice got to parts of it. I chose to put this one in the frame instead of some nicer ones because the tattered condition gives is a much better story when people ask about them than a nice one could ever do. And it's worked :) As a decoration, its perfect.

I agree with davec13; must be for the low grade collectors. I was going to bid -$10; seller pay me to take it off his hands. LOL  |

Classed as Good, like Greek Government bonds I think.

This kind of thing is what makes this hobby absolutely fasinating.
