cashhound Pillar of the Community United States 800 Posts	Posted 10/19/2020 4:03 pm I found a note that I need to complete a set and it is crisp but has a tellers mark. How much does this degrade the note? Report this Post to the Staff

cashhound Pillar of the Community United States 800 Posts	Posted 10/19/2020 8:04 pm Ok, let me rephrase the question. If a note is graded by PMG to be 53 (about UNC) without the mark. In your opinion what would it be WITH the mark? Report this Post to the Staff
hfjacinto Pillar of the Community United States 7273 Posts	Posted 10/19/2020 8:16 pm I doubt this note is AU 53 as I see a fold by USA in the picture posted and also a soft corner. It might be XF at best, would need to see a full picture. The stain would probably give you a NET score with a detail of stain.
