Does anyone know the current market value for a Bird Series ascending/descending ladder radar note? $20.00 note

You're wondering what someone would offer you for one of these notes as opposed to what the catalogue value tells you it is worth?

Well I'm assuming that its like all about demand.
I believe error notes currently has a higher market value than catalogue value correct?

So is the market value for the the ladder note higher or lower than catalogue at the current moment?

Based on what I have seen, ladders are performing better than ladder-radars.  I think the catalogue value of ladder-radars is high, especially on more modern series.  In fact, the catalogue values on both groups are very close.  For example, for bird series $20s, ladders are $550 and ladder-radars are $500.  If I was prospecting, I would bet on bird series ladders as the Bird series finally appears to be gaining strength.

I would put market value on a bird $20 ladder-radar at more like $350-$400.  I would even go as far as to say the catalogue value of ladder-radars keeps the market value higher than it would be otherwise (because of bargain hunters).

I wouldn't say error notes as a whole are increasing in value.  Certain kinds are doing better than others.
