You ruined it when you pressed it, lost 1/3 it's value. Bummer.

Not really as this method is accepted by collectors.

Ironing is NOT accepted and easy to detect.

I'm curious what method you would use to determine when a note has been "pressed" or not?

You can tell that it has been pressed by the fold lines that still exist. That being said, the last time I was at a show with a paper currency dealer he was selling a pressed Hawaii in either VF+ or XF+ Condition for $60. I'd have to check my notes on that one.

Is anyone else here aware of the fact that just storing a note in a flat condition such as a top loading clear holder "presses" the folds out of it over time?
