Title: 1870 Plain Shinplaster
Post by: StevieMo on May 01, 2007, 03:04:06 am
Just a little curious as to the value on this one as I know nothing about it. Any help is appreciated. The bill is just as it looks in the picture, some slight discolouration, quite a few creases, but absolutely no tears. Any other information about the bill is more than welcome as well. Thanks in advance.

Here are the current 19th Edition Charlton catalogue pricing for this note:

VG              CDN $30
F                CDN $50
VF              CDN $150
EF              CDN $400
AU              CDN $900
UNC            CDN $1,500

It is difficult to accurately grade a note from a scanned image but if I was to venture an educated guess
I would assign this note a grade of Fine (F).

Here is some additional information on this issue from the 19th Edition Charlton catalogue:
