xoticbassdude New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 08/27/2016 3:09 pm I came across these old notes and I am wondering what the values of them might be. They all look to be lightly circulated, but are all still very crisp with little to no wear on them. I am new to collecting, so any help is appreciated! 1. Series 1935 E $1 Silver Certificate. Has a gutter fold error and the print on the back is off center as well. The bill is in great shape and is very crisp. Signature slightly overlaps the serial number on the bottom. 2. Series 1934 $20 Star Note. Serial Number C for Philadelphia. Shows some circulation what, but still crisp and in good condition. 3. Series 1934 D $5 Star Note.Crisp and fairly clean. Here are a couple pictures of the notes. Thank you in advance for your help! Report this Post to the Staff

Knowing where and how to search for the value of your notes is learned from experience. The first note, your gutter fold, can be found here;https://currency.ha.com/c/search-re...egory-102615 Your second note, 1934D $5 SC Star, can be found here; https://currency.ha.com/c/search-re...ilter-071515 And your third note, 1934 $20 Philadelphia Star note, can be found here; https://currency.ha.com/c/search-re...h-A-K-071316 Nothing wrong with posting photos and asking for opinions, but knowing how and where to search will help you become a better collector. Printed price guides are also nice, but knowing recent auction and sales information gives you a better idea of current trends. As soon as I tell you your gutter fold is worth $25, someone else will come along with a different price/opinion......if you learn for yourself, you are better off. Edited to add; Also, read the grading scales used by two of the prominent paper money grading services to evaluate the condition of your notes.
