Missing numbers on $1 '54 issue

News: Welcome to the Canadian Paper Money Forum.

So I came across a '54 $1 note today that has the missing serial numbers and looks similar to the missing numbers error from this web site

But can't find any valuation for this note anywhere....


Can anyone help me determine the value for this kinda note? I would say the condition is somewhere between VG to F...

The book says $800 in UNC, so adjust the price accordingly.  Also, be careful with these notes.  There are some fakes out there with the serial number chemically erased somehow.

Anyway I can determine if it has been chemically altered?

Got a pic or two?

The lower the grade, the more likely the error is not authentic.

Does the note smell different?

I never thought to smell it... interesting!

I only saw it for all of 30 seconds really.. I have bought a bunch of .50 cent pieces of this one guy he has said he has a bunch of old bills... 

He brought this out... I guess thinking I would bite right away with a buy price... but I told him I would look into it first. But from all that I have read and for those that have e-mailed me with some responses it's sounding like the note is a fake...
