With these following shots, I placed a light underneath to show that there are no pinholes, but to better point out creases.

You have a large center fold and a few smaller folds. Coupled with some foxing on top. So I doubt you will get EPQ. Based on the folds and foxing I would say VF35 no Q with a chance at VF30 if the note has more folds and foxing than seen in the pictures.

Did you mean to say the VF 30 instead of XF 30 here?

Tough to grade currency with pictures. I'd call it VF based on what I can see in the photos. in-hand it might be better or worse. Nice note to have regardless.

I'm really glad that you made the suggestion on the side lighting since it forced me to remove it from an old Mylar holder that was very yellow. Check out these new photos to see how both sides brightened up.

These new photos are made of all original colors without any digital manipulation.
