This note appears worn, but has some crispness left. There is a fold/crease right down the center (visually faint, but obvious to the touch). What is the grade and how do I tell if the bill has been pressed or washed?

Still learning myself, but here is my opinion.
A single center crease would make it EF tops, but I think I detect a horizontal fold and vertical crease as well as 1 or 2 parallel diagonal creases running through the left back, and other minor creases in the area of the back left vertical edge. Also the back lower left edge is rounded.
Still nice eye appeal, my guess would be VF.
Hold the bill on edge up to light, looking for creases. Feel the embossing of the ink in heavily inked areas, if you can't feel some embossing then it could be pressed. Smell the bill to detect bleach or cleaners.
