The specimen note lists for $3,000 in UNC conditon, there is no prices known for the regular issued note other than it being listed as rare. Ron Wise runs banknote.com he might be able to help you. http://www.banknoteworld.com |

No value has been give to the regular issue probably because none have been sold at auction to record the price.

Yeah, if it's a genuine note then I think it's priceless. $1000 back then could be a lot, so there's probably less than 20 around the world, I would think.
This is like the Palestinian Authority 100 Pounds note. 100 Pounds was 40~ months of wage for a skilled laborer, so there were only 30 something made and only 6 known today.
