Squirmasaurus Valued Member Canada 95 Posts	Posted 10/07/2019 2:52 pm Hello. Someone had pointed me to the PCGS Photograde site to help me with grading my coins, which was AMAZING! However, it is not so easy to grade my banknotes, considering I am a real newbie AND because I am totally a visual person and the verbal grading standards don't cut it for me. Is there a site that has photo examples of each grade of banknotes? Report this Post to the Staff

Squirmasaurus Valued Member Canada 95 Posts	Posted 10/07/2019 9:43 pm Thank you kindly. So, I assume no "visual" example site exists? Report this Post to the Staff

Many thousands of pictures of notes, hundreds of them graded by reputable TPGs "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Report this Post to the Staff
walk2dwater Pillar of the Community Canada 2578 Posts	Posted 10/09/2019 7:07 pm perusing as many notes as one can is a great start. However, I believe there's nothing better than hands-on experience (& getting a feel for what to look for). I suggest you take a bundle of circulated notes out and try to grade them yourself (once you get familiar with what to look for re: each grade. Look at some: UNC-AU-EF-VF-F, etc). I also shot this video in the spring with a friend who was willing to assist me. It will be featured on my website and I will add it here: mbBsZDJtVAk 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
Squirmasaurus Valued Member Canada 95 Posts	Posted 10/09/2019 9:09 pm Thank you very much. I have been looking at lots and lots of bills on ebay, and of my own. And I will indeed, watch your video. Thank you. Report this Post to the Staff
walk2dwater Pillar of the Community Canada 2578 Posts	Posted 10/23/2019 07:31 am It is gratifying to know you may have found some usefulness out of the video (or from my site). Please check my website for more info on CDN (& world) banknotes. I also just had a review of Charlton Guide to Government Paper Money accepted by Charlton and posted on Banknote index: https://banknoteindex.com/articles/...harltonSCCPM 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
