I am also intrested in paper money, but I'm just always worried about counterfeiting, I guess thats the only thing turning me away from notes. I also like that PMG adds a side note on the back "Exceptional Paper Quality"------I wish they would describe also on NGC and PCGS slabs.
Very Nice Note, Older notes are more complex and exciting!

Just wondering, how much would this cost? I didn't even know paper money could last this long in such good quality  |

Errorcoins, PCGS does have a designation for this as well... here is two of my small size rare star notes with such a rating for you to see.Nothing in this world is perfect and counterfieting has always been around, however, that is one of the reasons I go with slabbed currency. Yes, I am aware that even the pro graders gets spoofed sometimes and one slips by now and then. Reading about the anti-counterfieting devices used back then on the notes and looking for them in place is obvious. Do not let that stop you from collecting Paper Money...LOL read, read read before you buy the note! BTW....PMG is the currency part of NGC   Thanks for stopping by....... InkSmear Edited by InkSmear

Just wondering, how much would this cost? I didn't even know paper money could last this long in such good quality WD1040.. On the FR-243 I just received a copy of the new census and as of 2/09 there are 118 Known. PMG and PCGS known grading go as follows. PMG 4 in 64s, 2 in 65's, 1 in 66 and 1 in 68 EPQ's PCGS 1 in 64, 2 in 65, 2 in 66 PPQ's So while this note is a nice example there are some out there that really shine! I feel fortunate to have this example as Fr# 243's are difficult to find in high Grades.As for cost, in the past on a different board I made that mistake by submitting those indications..LOL Will not do that again..LOL PaperMoney Value Guides are available through the Web and the Greensheet's. Take a look at archived pricing for notes on https://www.HA.com as well, a ton of info there. InkSmear Edited by InkSmear

"How is the $50 a mule, and what exactly is a wide star note"?
Well basically, all Series 1934A thru 1950 $50 notes are Mules.
The backplate numbers of 162 (micro size) and lower will define this to be true.
The $50* that I posted is one of 3 known notes for the NY Fed Bank and is the second highest graded note known.
The $20 * is the only known and highest graded note from that Fed Bank (NY)
The Wide variey as well as the narrow is found primarily on the $1, $5, $10 and $20 notes and is simply that the plate engraving for these notes were aprox 1mm in difference so that the pattern would fit on the note (reverse) as designed. I have not read any reference to a $50 wide or narrow variety, if you have one, please share it with me..please?
Schwartz/Lindquist 8th Edition points this out quite clearly for those of you interested. The variety exist not only on FRN but Silver Certs as well.
