 Well if it's a 1945 then it will be worth lots as most are 1954.  ;)

Sounds like it is VF or EF but we'll have to wait and see the signature.

Beattie Rasminsky $2

VG=$45
F=$75
VF=$135
EF=$250
AU=$500
Unc=$725
C.Unc=$850
G.Unc=$1,000

I think that in the newest catalogue (Charlton Standard 21st Edition) the value of the S/R test note has gone down because they are becoming fairly common. Still a very nice note to own!

I doubt that. The note is not common.

Sorry Noon...

You would of gotten it cheaper if it wasn't for me.   I was the one who bid you up on that note at the last second.

No Heart Feelings.    :'(

Luckily I decided not to throw out a bigger bid.  You and I were the only ones who threw in last minute bids it looks like.

Good Catch.. Still got a good price for what it looks like. 

I think it will probably come back EF/AU.  Would love to see a Scan of it when you get it.

Should have said that differently. They are not becoming common but there are just more around. And they just recently found out about the G/R Test note.

Hi.  I was just catching up on some posts. What about the G/R test note?
Can you provide any other information on that series?  TOMMYBOY

I do not really know alot about test notes,other than the E/R and G/R test notes are very rare and expensive, sorry.

I am sure someone else on the forum could help you out though.
