Reduce the size of the picture or use an higher compression on the jpeg file (less quality) or makes an lower resolution scan (72 dpi is enough for a display).

Very difficult to tell from puny scan if this has folds other than from the folding error. However, if it's otherwise unc or AU, with the large butterfly piece attached, this is worth at least $400, perhaps more to an avid error collector.

Here are the scans that I resized. There are some shadows but it looks AU to me.

Other opinions are welcome.

Still tough to tell but AU looks like bit of a stretch.... Even in EF it's probably in the $300 area....

Maybe its just me but it looks very dirty in the scan I would think VF at best.

This scan was sent to me to be reduced from a very large 800 k/b's and so it appears to be dirty but it is only shadows and is heavily pixelated.

In the original scan on the back you can see embossing mostly along the bottom.

I don't watch the values of error notes much but I would think it would be worth around $300 in the condition it's in.

I have seen the note with a better scan it is a VF at best and book value is 350 in UNC I would guess an affordable 60-80 bucks is what this note would get at most
