I have been searching for a graded 1935 $1 silver certificate for a few months now ("No bloody A, B, C or D" (or E, F, or G, for that matter)), but the sellers are asking big money*. Now they may be right; I don't see a lot of them available online. Happy to pay that if it's fair and maybe it is. Perusing sold items on ebay is not a good gauge for things that don't come up very often. So, I'm asking the experts here. What's a fair deal (for both buyer and seller) for a PMG/PCGS 66 1935 $1? *you know...relatively. Edited by CelticKnot

Expect to pay between $60-$100 for a TPG graded (65Q-66Q) Fr.1607 1935 $1 Silver Certificate. It will cost more for a Mule, more for a Star, and more for Fancy serial number. Mine is a 64PPQ, but still looks quite nice with all of the zeros.  Edited to add; Scott Lindquist has several nice Fr.1607's for sale. I especially like the 58PPQ for $60 or the 65PPQ for $90. There's a lot to be said for AU notes with *PQ and nice eye appeal. Sometimes it's hard to tell through the holder why it's not uncirculated. http://scottlindquist.com/silver-ce...w-all-notes/ Give Scott a call or email him. Let him know that Steve in Tampa sent you his way. Edited by SteveInTampa

Agree, common note, even in 66. Try the '28 series for more of a challenge.

Thanks, guys. @Steve - great serial indeed. Thanks for the advice; I'll look up Mr. Lidquist and let you know how it goes. @frog, the '28 series is definitely on the radar.  |

Circling back to this. I took a look at that site and the 65PPQ you mentioned and I have a couple concerns. The centering on the back is not great and there is a rough/jagged spot on the top edge (over "UNITED"). Is this typical/acceptable for a 65? I can see a 65 if it only had one of the two problems.
Or maybe I'm being too picky for the series? Still getting a feel for how this works.

I would keep looking. Find the one that appeals to your eye and meets your criteria. Just like on the coin side of the house - if you don't like the way it looks you will regret the purchase. I apologize for the shoddy photo as I was in a hurry to take this walking out the door to work. AU58PPQ. I think this note is beautiful, regardless of the picture takers poor photo. :)  Edited by scopru

No expertise on the topic ... simply wishing a fellow collector best wishes on this journey.

CK - Would you clarify your original post - what does "No bloody A,B,C or D..." mean?  Edited by Coinfrog

CF I think he means plain series only notes.

It commenced with Series 1935 and subsequent changes they added a letter (e.g. Series 1935 A) the letters progressed through Series 1935 H which was printed and issued in 1963.

Yes, right, thanks.  All of the 1935 series $1 Silver Certificates, whatever their date letter (plain, A,B,C...) are common in TPG 65PQ. If you want more of a challenge, try the stars for each issue.  Edited by Coinfrog

Thanks. The stars in all of the 1935 series have great potential in high grades.

@CoingFrog, "No bloody A, B, C, or D" is a quote. If you're interested in guessing, I'll be happy to throw out some clues. Or if not, I will just tell you. |
