I trust Steve more than a random coin dealer. Sorry.
He know his small size notes.

Editing out the wrinkles? What? They are still fully visible in that scan.

I'd put it under a heavy glass for a while and have the weight flatten out much as possible, then retake the picture.
It wont get rid of everything, but it would certainly look better.

Steve right that presentation is everything, especially if you're in the packaging industry.

I talked with Nancy, of Nancy Poli Restoration, and she said the best way to deal with wrinkles/folds is to put the note in a humidity chamber for 30 minutes and then use a weighted object to flatten it for a day.

Notes imaged on a flatbed scanner always make a note look better than photos taken by a phone. The editing I mentioned was image #1 to image #2.

I tried this myself today. The 1st note (brown) was taken with a camera. The same note (blue) was a scanned note.

The difference is more obvious on notes that have seen circulation. This note appears to be uncirculated.
