Yet, I'm pressed to find any creases or folds in this note. It's one of 300+ notes that survived the fire at the Washington DC post office on Dec 12, 1935 when the cancelled notes were being returned to the US Treasury for destruction. Most surviving notes are water-stained or have charred burned marks. While technically illegal to own, the government has not called in these notes, citing more important matters. If they ever did, the black market for these notes would sky rocket into the 6 figure arena! This note is pristine. Items totalling over $800 will be sent registered mail.

Grading With over 20 years of experience, we use the ANA standards for coin grading. Grading for the most part is technical and not subjective!  A circulated coin will have a certain amount of wear (not to be confused with strike) to meet a certain grade.  Mint State coins vary based on strike, contact marks, and "eye appeal" (the only subjective part).  Problem coins result in "net grading".  If we feel a "slabbed" coin is not properly graded, we will notate that in the description. On a couple of occasions, we have sent the same coin to the same grading service and got it back with a grading difference of 2-3 MS points!
