And for a mere 12K it is yours (already washed and cleaned) but pick it up in person and get a discount :)
I feel sorry for the person that buys this note if they know what we now know :(

Very disappointed that the seller has chosen to hide the fact that the note has previously been cleaned of a significant stain.  After the extensive discussion here, the seller is now actively deciding to be deceptive in the listing.

So the same note was featured is the same type of what's it worth discussion on coincommunity.com forum and OMG it is been restored, then the next day thread has been deleted.

Hmmm.

It's a simple equation, really.

PMG + eBay = a second chance to make a profit on virtually any note for which you overpaid.

It is worth noting now that the eBay listing for this note now includes mention of both the original stain and the work done to professionally clean the note.

I am satisfied now that the seller has reconsidered and chosen to take a more ethical approach by providing full disclosure of the note's previous damage and subsequent restoration.
