I was just wondering your guys opinion on if this bill has any hope at all. Besides of the obvious "27" written in blue ink on the left side of the bill, it's in rather immaculate condition. There are two small smudges on the front center bottom border. Theres a small slight slight slight indented counting mark (?) on the top near the right side, not noticeable without close inspection. And finally there is one more small smudge on the back top center border. Other than that 27... I'd say it would be in atleast the UNC condition (in my very unprofessional opinion, based on what I've read). Thoughts? * Moved by Staff moved to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

Delareece Valued Member Canada 101 Posts	Posted 03/01/2018 05:14 am Forgot to mention: The bill is as crisp and firm as it could possibly be. No folds or creases whatsoever. The colour is actually much more vibrant than this picture shows. I'm fairly sure it's got its full original colour. Report this Post to the Staff

walk2dwater Pillar of the Community Canada 2578 Posts	Posted 06/14/2018 5:10 pm Thoughts? Off the top of my head- I'd say its a nice note (despite the graffiti). Quote: AU for me, with a DAMAGED designation. The #27 is not considered "damage" by most TPG (as far as I know). Instead, they would consider the ink an "impairment." As " TheBurnz" rightly eludes to - it cannot be UNC (uncirculated) since it has been circulated enough to have had the # written on it. However, it has got great looking (sharp) edges, corners (well centred) and I'm sure the tint/colour is nice. It is impossible for us to tell whether its *original* (in that it hasn't been pressed) but if that is the case (i.e. its original) then it could be AU (Almost Uncirculated) which is a lot nicer than the copious number of dull 1954 pressed notes I've seen. So, bottom line, if you like it- keep it (& yes $25 would be the approximate BV without the impairment- but you never know- you could find a buyer who's okay with that/ preferred grafitti over wrinkles/pressed notes). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OUc8Kx5wCI4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2LeYOYtSAoc http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mq1DlqkPHhE http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1PsCjxldIao Report this Post to the Staff
