Title: 1000 Note 3 consecutive numbers
Post by: charbysk on October 19, 2006, 11:01:51 pm

Oh my! You all really seem to know what you're talking about. Not so much with me.   :P

I don't collect but I have some really cool looking 1000 dollar notes and I am curious as to if they are worth more than ... well ... a 1000 dollars.

1954 Lawson & Bouey
AoverK 1151851 and 1151852 and 1151853
They seem very flat and clean with no fold marks.
They have been in a safedeposit box for a long time.

Thank you for helping me out.

Well, the charlton states that each note is worth $1650 in perfect condition. If they have a few slight imperfections then each will be worth $1250. The problem is that not many individuals collect $1000 notes. In addition the signature combination that you provided is the least rare in the 1954 $1000 notes. Thus I would estimate that your notes would fetch between $1200-$1500.

If you hold the notes up to the light, on an angle, all the imprefections are visible.

If you were going to sell all 3. You may find someone who collects $1000 notes who would pay good money for them because they are consecutive.
